EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures a detail from the iconic Parthenon temple, a magnificent ancient Greek structure nestled atop the Acropolis hill in Athens, Greece. Dating back to the 5th century BC, the Parthenon stands as a testament to the grandeur and artistic prowess of the ancient Greeks. This photograph, taken in the 21st century by acclaimed photographer Ethel Davies, offers a stunning contrast between the rich history of the past and the present day. The Parthenon, once a vibrant center of religious and cultural life, now stands as a citadel and a symbol of Greece's proud heritage. The intricate friezes and meticulously carved columns, once adorned with colorful frescoes and intricate details, now appear weathered and worn, yet retain an undeniable allure. The Parthenon's enduring presence on the Acropolis, overlooking the bustling city of Athens, serves as a poignant reminder of the passage of time and the indelible mark left by ancient civilizations on the modern world.
