EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, captured by acclaimed photographer Ethel Davies in 2018, showcases a striking contrast between ancient and modern Greece. The image was taken in Syntagma Square, Athens, where the elite light infantry 24-hour honor guard stands sentinel before the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. The soldiers, dressed in their traditional military uniforms, exude a sense of discipline and solemnity as they perform their hourly changing ceremony. The backdrop to this scene is the iconic Parliament building, a symbol of modern Greek democracy. Yet, the presence of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, a mausoleum dedicated to the fallen soldiers of the Greek military, transports us back in time to ancient Greece and its rich history of war and sacrifice. The soldiers' uniforms, with their distinctive skirts and colourful clothing, are a nod to Greece's military traditions that date back centuries. The contrasting colours of the soldiers' uniforms against the neutral tones of the Parliament building and the grey pavement of the square create a visually striking image. This photograph is a testament to the enduring legacy of Greece's military regiments and its commitment to honoring its past. It is also a popular tourist attraction, drawing visitors from around the world who are captivated by the blend of ancient and modern Greek culture. Ethel Davies' photograph is a poignant reminder of the importance of remembering the past while embracing the present. It is a unique and fascinating glimpse into the traditions and history of Greece, making it a must-see image for anyone interested in the country's rich cultural heritage.
