EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning steel engraving from 1833 captures the breathtaking beauty of the Vale of Tempe in northern Greece. The image showcases a view of this magnificent gorge, where the Pineios River gracefully flows between two majestic mountains, Mount Olympus and Mount Ossa. The artist, James Willmore, skillfully brings to life every intricate detail of this picturesque landscape. From the towering cliffs to the lush greenery that surrounds them, one can almost feel the tranquility and serenity emanating from this scene. In the foreground, we see a trail leading towards a riverbank where a fisherman patiently waits for his catch. A mother and child enjoy their time by the riverside while a dog playfully runs around them. Further along, men can be seen engaged in various activities such as fishing or simply taking in nature's wonders. The composition is completed with women gathering near an old tree on a beach-like area nearby. It is evident that this place holds great significance for both locals and visitors alike. This extraordinary print not only serves as a visual feast but also transports us back to an earlier era when nature was revered for its awe-inspiring grandeur. It reminds us of our connection with these ancient landscapes and encourages us to appreciate their enduring beauty even today.
