EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the enigmatic figure of Phocion, an Athenian statesman and strategos who lived from c402 to c318 BC. The creator of this remarkable portrait remains unknown, adding an air of mystery to the image. Phocion was renowned for his unwavering honesty and integrity, making him a subject of great interest in Plutarch's Parallel Lives. The photograph is taken from "Biographical Illustrations" by Alfred Howard, published in 1830 by Thomas Tegg, R. Griffin and Co. , J. Cumming in London, Glasgow, and Dublin. It offers a glimpse into the rich history of ancient Greece during the fourth century BC. In this profile portrait, Phocion appears dignified and thoughtful as he gazes into the distance. His clothing reflects the fashion of his time with an open collar shirt that exudes simplicity yet sophistication. The engraving beautifully captures his strong features and commanding presence. This print not only serves as a visual representation but also evokes curiosity about one of Athens' most prominent political figures. It transports us back to a time when honor held immense value in society while providing insight into Phocion's character through artistry. Whether displayed in a gallery or cherished within personal collections, this striking image invites viewers to delve deeper into ancient Greek politics and admire the timeless allure of historical portraiture.
