EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment frozen in time from ancient Greek history. The image showcases the intense fight over the body of Patroclus, depicted on a frieze from the Siphnian Treasury dating back to around 525 BC. The marble artwork, now housed in the Archaeological Museum at Delphi, Greece, portrays an epic scene from the Trojan War. The composition features Greek soldiers engaged in combat as they fiercely battle for control of Patroclus' lifeless body. Their helmets and shields gleam under the sunlight, symbolizing their unwavering determination and valor. The significance of this historical event is further emphasized by its preservation through photography.
