This print showcases the majestic Stadium of Curium (Kourion) in Cyprus, taken in 2001. Steeped in rich history, Cyprus became a Roman province in 58 BC and later became part of the Byzantine Empire in 395. The ancient city of Kourion is believed to have been established by the Argives, and during Roman times it was known as Curium. The image beautifully captures the remnants of this ancient site, revealing its architectural grandeur amidst a stunning Mediterranean landscape. The ruins stand as a testament to the once-thriving city's glory and offer a glimpse into its vibrant past. Vivienne Sharp skillfully captured this scene with an eye for detail, emphasizing sharp lines and vivid colors that bring life to these age-old structures. The photograph invites viewers on a journey through time, allowing them to immerse themselves in the fascinating world of ancient Greece. As we gaze upon this remarkable archaeological site, we are reminded not only of its historical significance but also of how entertainment played an integral role within these walls centuries ago. This print serves as both a visual delight and an educational tool, transporting us back to an era when stadiums like this were bustling hubs of activity.
