EDITORS COMMENTS
The majestic Lions of Delos, captured in this stunning print by Grenville Collins, are a powerful reminder of the ancient Greek civilization that once thrived on the sacred island of Delos. These iconic sculptures once stood proudly on the Terrace of the Lions, a grand monument dedicated to Apollo by the people of Naxos over 2,500 years ago.
As we gaze upon these weathered stone lions, we can almost feel the presence of the gods and goddesses who were worshipped in this sacred place. The intricate details carved into each lion's mane and face speak to the skill and artistry of the ancient craftsmen who created them.
Inscribed with history and mythology, these lions symbolize strength, power, and protection - qualities often associated with Apollo himself. Their silent watch over Delos serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of Greek culture and religion.
This print transports us back in time to an era when gods walked among mortals and temples rose up to touch the sky. It is a tangible link to our past, reminding us of our shared human heritage and inspiring awe for those who came before us.
