EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "CARREY: PARTHENON, 1674" captures a mesmerizing detail of the north frieze on the iconic Parthenon in Athens, Greece. This exquisite drawing was created by Jacque Carrey in 1674 and is part of the Carousel Collection. The image showcases a late ancient Greek relief that depicts a captivating scene from mythology. In this particular section of the frieze, we see an intricately carved chariot being pulled by powerful horses. A man stands atop the chariot, his presence exuding authority and strength. The attention to detail is remarkable, as every muscle and sinew of both man and horse is expertly rendered. It's important to note that much of the Parthenon temple was tragically destroyed in an explosion in 1687, making this drawing even more significant as it provides us with a glimpse into what once stood proudly on top of the Acropolis hill. Jacque Carrey's skillful hand brings life to this ancient artwork, allowing us to appreciate its beauty centuries later. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time to witness a moment frozen forever within stone. This print serves as a testament to human creativity and craftsmanship throughout history. It reminds us of our connection to ancient civilizations and their enduring legacy that continues to inspire awe today.
