EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the intricately carved relief sculptures of the Theatre of Dionysus in Athens, Greece. Dedicated to the ancient Greek god of wine, theatre, and festivity, Dionysus, this ancient theatre is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the Athenian civilization. The Theatre of Dionysus, located on the southern slope of the Acropolis, is one of the oldest theatres in the world. The relief sculptures depicted in this image are part of the Bema of Phaidros, alterations carried out in the third century AD by the archon Phaedrus. These sculptures were created by re-using earlier Hadrianic reliefs, which were built into the front of the stage building. The central figure in this relief is the god Dionysus, depicted with his characteristic attributes, including a foot on an Atlas figure, signifying his power over all things. The god is surrounded by various mythological figures, including satyrs, maenads, and other deities, all engaged in revelry and festivity. The intricate carvings on the relief sculptures are a marvel of ancient Greek art. The delicate details, such as the folds of the robes, the expressions on the faces of the figures, and the swirling patterns of the decorative elements, demonstrate the exceptional skill of the ancient Greek carvers. This photograph, taken in 1933, provides a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to the ancient world and allowing us to appreciate the beauty and artistry of the Theatre of Dionysus in Athens.
