EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the ancient city of Delphi in Greece, circa 1937. The artist behind this masterpiece is Martin Hurlimann, who beautifully captures the grandeur of the Stadium at Delphi. Built in the 5th century BC, this historic sports track was once a bustling venue for the renowned Pythian Games. Hurlimann's illustration comes from his notable work titled "Das Mittelmeer: Landschaft, Baukunst und Volksleben im Kreise des Mittellandischen Meeres" which delves into Mediterranean architecture, landscape, and people. This particular image showcases not only the architectural marvels of Ancient Greece but also highlights its breathtaking natural surroundings. The stadium stands as a testament to human ingenuity against a backdrop of majestic mountains. Its ruins evoke a sense of awe and wonder as we imagine athletes competing on this very track centuries ago. Through Hurlimann's lens, we are transported to an era where sport played a significant role in society. This monochrome photograph serves as both an archaeological treasure and an artistic masterpiece. It allows us to appreciate the rich history and cultural heritage that resides within these ancient ruins. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of our connection to those who came before us and their enduring legacy etched into these hallowed grounds at Delphi.
