Dating back to approximately 1920-1930, this photograph allows us to appreciate not only the artwork itself but also its preservation throughout centuries. It serves as a window into both past and present, connecting us with our ancestors who once celebrated athleticism through such grand spectacles. The artist behind this stunning print is Alinari, Fratelli. Through their lens, they have captured not just the physicality of the athletes but also their spirit and determination.
