EDITORS COMMENTS
This side view drawing of the Temple of Concordia in Ancient Agrigento, Sicily, Italy, was created by Louis Ducros in 1778. The Temple of Concordia, an ancient Greek Doric temple dedicated to the goddess Concordia, is situated on a hillside within the Valle dei Templi, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The temple, a masterpiece of ancient Greek architecture, stands proudly amidst the ruins of other ancient structures, offering a glimpse into the rich history and cultural heritage of the region. Louis Ducros, a Swiss artist and traveler, captured this stunning image as part of his 'Voyage to Italy, Sicily and Malta' album. The drawing, executed in chalk on paper, showcases the temple's elegant columns and intricate details, as well as the panoramic view of the surrounding hills and the valley below. The use of color and shading adds depth and texture to the drawing, making it a visual feast for the eyes. The Temple of Concordia, with its serene and tranquil setting, has long been a popular tourist attraction, drawing visitors from all corners of the world. The romantic era, with its emphasis on emotion and individualism, further fueled the interest in ancient ruins and the study of classical art. This drawing serves as a testament to the enduring allure of ancient Greece and the importance of preserving its cultural heritage for future generations. The Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, Netherlands, holds this beautiful drawing in its collections, a reminder of the rich artistic and historical legacy of Europe and the world.
