EDITORS COMMENTS
The Pomp of Pausanias, captured in this stunning lithograph from 1915, transports us back to the grandeur and splendor of ancient Greece. Illustrated by Allan Stewart, this print is a captivating depiction of an Athenian procession led by the renowned traveler and writer, Pausanias. Intricately detailed, the image showcases a scene filled with ceremonial magnificence. A male figure representing Pausanias sits atop a luxurious sedan chair as he is carried through the streets of ancient Athens. Surrounding him are soldiers marching in perfect formation, forming an impressive phalanx that exudes strength and power. The atmosphere is charged with excitement as onlookers line the streets to witness this majestic parade. The artist's skillful use of light and shadow adds depth to each figure, emphasizing their regal stature and creating a sense of awe-inspiring spectacle. Pausanias himself was famous for his travel writings which provided invaluable insights into various places visited during his time - acting as a precursor to what would later become known as the Grand Tour. This illustration captures not only his influential presence but also evokes the spirit of exploration and discovery that characterized ancient Greek society. This lithograph serves as both a historical document and a work of art, transporting viewers back in time to experience firsthand the pompous glory that once graced these ancient streets.
