The Gate of Lions, a monumental entranceway to the city of Mycenae, stands tall and proud against a backdrop of lush greenery. This 19th-century artwork by the English School beautifully captures the grandeur and classical beauty of this historical site. The Gate of Lions itself is an architectural marvel, adorned with intricate carvings depicting two lions standing on their hind legs.
