EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the classical era, specifically to Olympia in 1914. The image, a colour lithograph by Heinrich Gaertner after an original artwork, showcases the site of the pan-hellenic Olympic games in Ancient Greece. With its temples and grand structures beautifully reconstructed, this general view offers a glimpse into what Olympia looked like during its prime. The photograph captures the essence of this Greek city's sanctuary and temple complex, evoking a sense of awe and reverence. It takes us on a visual journey through time, allowing us to witness firsthand the magnificence that once graced these hallowed grounds. Olympia holds immense historical significance as it was not only home to one of the most prestigious athletic events in history but also served as a cultural hub for ancient Greeks. This print serves as a testament to both its architectural brilliance and its role in fostering unity among different city-states. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are reminded of how art can transport us across centuries and continents. It invites contemplation about our shared human heritage while celebrating the enduring legacy left behind by those who came before us.
