EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Prayers to the Gods for the Liberation of Greece, plate 1 from Pictorial History of the Greek War of Independence" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Created by General Makryjannis and preserved in a private collection, this vibrant colour lithograph captures the essence of Greece's struggle for independence from the Ottoman Empire between 1821 and 1829. The image portrays an array of influential figures on both sides, symbolizing support for Greece's cause. On the left side, we see Tsar Nicholas I of Russia, Queen Victoria of England, and Louis-Philippe I of France standing united with their Greek allies. Meanwhile, on the right side stands King Otto and Queen Amelie of Greece alongside Athena, patron saint of Athens. A sense of solemnity fills this artwork as Orthodox priests join queens and rulers in fervent prayer. The composition exudes hope and determination as they beseech divine intervention for liberation. Each figure carries their own significance - representing political alliances or embodying mythical strength. Through this powerful visual narrative captured by Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are reminded not only of Greece's fight for freedom but also how art can immortalize historical events. This print serves as a testament to human resilience against oppression while honoring those who played pivotal roles in shaping history.
