EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment frozen in time from ancient Greece. The image showcases the intricate frieze of the Siphnian Treasury, dating back to 525 BC. Etched on marble, this masterpiece depicts a fierce battle scene outside the walls of Troy during the Trojan War. The attention to detail is remarkable as Greek soldiers engage in combat with their Trojan counterparts. Each warrior wears an elaborate helmet, symbolizing their allegiance and identity. The helmets are beautifully crafted by the skilled hands of Syphnian artisans, showcasing their mastery in metalwork. In the midst of chaos, a powerful lion emerges from one side, its jaws wide open as it sinks its teeth into an unfortunate soldier's arm. This dramatic element adds intensity to the already gripping composition. The Siphnian Treasury was built by wealthy citizens from Syphnos (also known as Sifnos or Siphnos) as a tribute to their success and prosperity. It served as a storehouse for valuable offerings dedicated to Apollo at Delphi. Through this photograph taken in October 1961 by John Bethell, we are transported back thousands of years to witness this epic clash between two legendary civilizations. It serves as a testament to both human creativity and our eternal fascination with history and warfare.
