"The Temple of Minerva in AEgina, Greece", by Harry Johnson, in the Gallery of the British Institution, 1862. Engraving from a painting. Those fine old remains of Archaic grandeur which have survived the secret ravages of time, the convulsion of earthquakes, and the plundering hands of man for upwards of 2000 years, still in the silent ruin proclaim the genius and taste of the age which produced them, and which, in spite of all that may be said to the contrary, has been the informing principle of all great art that has been since the Revival, or may hereafter arise...It may be proper to state for the information of those who have only heard of the Temple of AEgina, as one dedicated to Jupiter, that recent explorers have discovered the site of a second temple there, and that in the opinion of many...the name of Jupiter Panhellenius was misplaced as applied to the ruins so long known as "the Temple of AEgina", which was more properly to be described as dedicated to Minerva. Mr. Harry Johnson has adopted this view of the matter, and hence the title of his picture, which might otherwise be misunderstood, or lead to confusion'. From "Illustrated London News", 1862

EDITORS COMMENTS
The Temple of Minerva in Aegina, Greece, as depicted in Harry Johnson's painting, captures the timeless beauty and grandeur of this ancient archaeological site. The image, on display at the Gallery in 1862, is an engraving from Johnson's original work. The Temple, a relic from the Archaic period, has miraculously endured the relentless march of time, earthquakes, and human plunder for over 2000 years. Its silent ruins continue to speak volumes about the artistic genius and aesthetic sensibilities of the era that brought it into being. It is worth noting that the Temple of Aegina, long believed to be dedicated to Jupiter, has been the subject of recent explorations. Scholars now contend that the name Jupiter Panhellenius was misapplied, and the temple was in fact dedicated to Minerva. This perspective is reflected in Harry Johnson's painting, titled accordingly to avoid confusion. The Temple of Aegina, as a symbol of the enduring influence of ancient Greek art, continues to inspire and captivate, reminding us of the unbroken lineage of artistic innovation that spans the centuries.
