EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative image captured by acclaimed photographer Ethel Davies in 2019, the ancient Greek archaeological site of Mycenae stands proudly against the backdrop of the Peloponnese countryside. Mycenae, an essential centre of Greek civilization in the second millennium BC, is steeped in legend and history, with its most famous association being with the Trojan War. The ruins of this ancient city, located in the eastern part of the Peloponnese peninsula, have been a source of fascination for scholars, historians, and tourists alike for centuries. The iconic Lion Gate, a massive stone gate adorned with intricate carvings of lions, is a testament to the grandeur and power of the Mycenaean civilization. As one walks through the site, the remnants of the Cyclopean Walls, the tombs of the Mycenaean rulers, and the Temple of Hera, one can almost hear the whispers of the past. The ruins, bathed in the golden light of the sun, offer a glimpse into a time long gone, transporting visitors to a different era. Ethel Davies' image captures the essence of Mycenae, showcasing its timeless beauty and historical significance. The vibrant colors of the landscape contrast sharply with the ancient stones, creating a striking juxtaposition that highlights the passage of time. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the rich history and cultural heritage that Greece has to offer. Mycenae, a city frozen in time, continues to captivate and inspire, inviting us to explore its mysteries and uncover the stories of the past. This image by Ethel Davies is a testament to the enduring allure of this ancient Greek site, a place where history and the present converge in a breathtaking display of beauty and intrigue.
