EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the ancient world, capturing the majestic Temple of Hera at Olympia in 1913. Standing proudly against a clear blue sky, this architectural marvel is a testament to the rich religious history of Greece. The ruins of this sacred temple, located in Peloponnisos, continue to be a popular tourist attraction even today. The columns and pillars that remain evoke a sense of awe as we imagine the grandeur it once possessed during its prime in the 6th century. Dedicated to Hera, the goddess and wife of Zeus, this temple holds great significance in Greek mythology. It was believed that her presence blessed those who visited with fertility and protection. As we gaze upon this monochrome image, we can almost feel her divine energy emanating from within. The photographer Robert Hitchens has skillfully captured every intricate detail of this historical site. Through his lens, he allows us to appreciate not only the architectural beauty but also the serene surroundings that make Olympia such an enchanting location. As we delve into our own imaginations while observing this stunning print from The Near East collection by Hodder and Stoughton Ltd. , let us reflect on how these ancient structures continue to inspire wonder and admiration centuries later.
