EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the Greek colony of Massalia, known today as Marseille, France. The image is a historical engraving from Hutchinsons History of the Nations, published in 1915. It showcases the ancient civilization that thrived here around the 6th century BC. The scene depicts a bustling port city filled with sailors, settlers, and local inhabitants going about their daily lives. The Greeks who founded this colony were originally from Phocaea and brought with them their rich cultural heritage. This archival photograph allows us to glimpse into the past and witness the birth of one of Europe's oldest cities. The level of detail captured in this illustration is remarkable; it transports us to an era long gone but not forgotten. From the architectural structures lining the harbor to the diverse array of people populating its streets, every element tells a story about Massalia's vibrant history. As we admire this piece by Ken Welsh from Fine Art Finder, we are reminded of how civilizations have evolved over centuries while leaving behind traces for future generations to uncover. This print serves as a testament to our shared human legacy and invites us to explore further into our collective past.
