EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the haunting beauty of the ruins of the ancient Greek city of Panticapaeum, located in the Autonomous Republic of Crimea, Ukraine. Founded by Milesians in the 6th century BC on Mount Mithridat, this archaeological site is a testament to the rich history and culture of ancient Greece.
The image showcases the remnants of a once-thriving city, with columns standing tall against a backdrop of rolling hills and the Black Sea coast. The intricate architecture and artistry of this ancient civilization are evident in every stone and pillar that remains.
As you gaze upon this photograph, you can almost feel yourself transported back in time to an age when Greek colonists roamed these lands and established a bustling port city at the crossroads of Europe and Asia. The ruins speak volumes about the power and influence of Panticapaeum as it served as the capital of the Cimmerian Bosporus Kingdom under King Mithridates.
This print is not just a piece of art but a window into a world long gone yet still preserved in these crumbling structures. It serves as a reminder of our shared human history and how even civilizations as mighty as Panticapaeum eventually succumb to time's relentless march.
