EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by acclaimed photographer Ethel Davies in 2003, showcases a unique blend of ancient history and modern tradition in the heart of Athens, Greece. The image captures the sentries of the elite light infantry 24-hour honor guard, standing proudly in front of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in Syntagma Square. The soldiers, dressed in their distinctive military uniforms, represent a continuation of the proud Greek military tradition that dates back to ancient Greece. The backdrop of the photograph is the iconic Parliament building, a symbol of modern Greek politics and democracy. The vibrant colors of the Greek flag, fluttering in the breeze, add a sense of national pride to the scene. The soldiers' uniforms, with their intricate designs and traditional elements, contrast sharply with the contemporary apparel of the tourists and locals milling about in the square. The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, a mausoleum dedicated to the fallen Greek soldiers, adds a solemn and poignant touch to the image. The changing of the guard ceremony, which takes place every hour, is a popular tourist attraction and a testament to the enduring significance of military tradition in Greek culture. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the rich tapestry of Greek history and culture, showcasing both the ancient and the modern in a single frame. Ethel Davies' keen eye for detail and her ability to capture the essence of a moment make this image a must-see for anyone interested in the history and traditions of Greece and its people.
