This stunning handcoloured copperplate engraving captures the essence of Modern Athens, rising from the ancient ruins of its predecessor in 1800. The view from the south-east showcases the majestic Temple of Olympian Zeus with its three remaining columns standing proudly in the foreground. Beyond, we see the iconic Arch of Hadrian leading our gaze towards the Acropolis and Parthenon perched atop the hill.
The intricate details and vibrant colors bring this historical scene to life, offering a glimpse into a time when Athens was undergoing a transformation while still honoring its rich past. Friedrich Johann Bertuch's illustration from his Bilderbuch fur Kinder (Picture Book for Children) is not just an artistic rendering but also serves as an educational tool, providing insight into the architectural wonders that define this ancient city.
As we marvel at this depiction of Athens, we are reminded of the enduring legacy left by those who came before us. The blend of old and new in this image symbolizes resilience and progress, showcasing how history continues to shape our present-day world.
