EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the majestic Temple of Zeus in Olympia, Greece, taken in 1922. The temple, constructed in the doric order, stood as a testament to ancient Greek architecture until it was tragically destroyed by an earthquake in the 5th century. The photograph beautifully captures the intricate details of this architectural wonder. Adorned with carved metopes and triglyph frieze, the temple's pediments were once filled with sculptures that are now attributed to the renowned Olympia Master and his studio. In this image, we see people walking through an archway towards the temple, emphasizing its grandeur against a backdrop of serene surroundings. The columned structure stands tall and proud amidst a landscape that exudes history and spirituality. As we gaze at this monochrome masterpiece captured by Keystone, we can't help but feel transported back to ancient times when gods like Zeus reigned supreme over Greece. This print is not just a visual delight; it also serves as a reminder of humanity's deep connection to religion and art throughout centuries. Preserved for posterity by J. A Hammerton's lens, this image offers us a glimpse into one of Europe's most iconic landmarks – a place where myth meets reality. It invites us to appreciate both the architectural brilliance behind its creation and the cultural significance it holds for generations past and present.
