EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite beauty of Ancient Greek ornamental architecture and sculpture. Dating back to 1898, this image captures the essence of Greek artistry and craftsmanship. The print features various elements of ancient Greek design, including Doric, Ionic, and Corinthian capitals from iconic structures such as the Paestum, Erechtheion on the Acropolis of Athens, and the Choragic Monument of Lysicrates. The intricate details painted on the Doric capital from Paestum add a touch of vibrancy to its classical form. Additionally, we are treated to glimpses of other decorative elements like caryatides from the Erechtheion and acroteria from sepulchral columns in Paris. Anthemia-decorations adorn Figs 7-9 while griffins take center stage in Figs 10 and 11. Fragments of freezes provide a glimpse into ancient mythological scenes. The photo also highlights legs of marble tables found in both the National Museum at Naples and British Museum in London. These elegant pieces showcase exceptional craftsmanship that has stood the test of time. Overall, this print is not just an artistic representation but also a valuable historical document that allows us to appreciate Ancient Greek culture through their architectural marvels and sculptural masterpieces.
