EDITORS COMMENTS
This souvenir postcard, postmarked 1899, offers a glimpse into the rich history and ancient beauty of Athens, Greece. The image features two of the city's most iconic landmarks: the Arch of Hadrian and the Parthenon, majestically perched atop the Acropolis. The Arch of Hadrian, a magnificent gateway and monument built in 131 AD, stands proudly in the foreground. Dedicated to the Roman Emperor Hadrian, the arch showcases intricate carvings of gods and emperors, symbolizing the fusion of Roman and Greek cultures. In the background, the Parthenon, an ancient temple dedicated to Athena, the goddess of wisdom, rises majestically. Its iconic columns, meticulously crafted from Pentelic marble, have stood the test of time, remaining a symbol of Greek civilization and architectural brilliance. This postcard serves as a window to the past, transporting us back to an era when the ancient world's greatest achievements were still standing tall. The image captures the essence of Athens' enduring allure, inviting us to explore its history and marvel at its timeless beauty.
