EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by John Dakers showcases the grandeur of The Temple of Olympian Zeus in Athens, Greece. The image captures a column base from the ruined temple dedicated to Zeus, the king of the Olympian gods. Standing tall against a backdrop of Mount Lycabettus, this architectural marvel is a testament to ancient Greek civilization. The Temple of Olympian Zeus, also known as Olympeion or Columns of the Olympian Zeus, was once one of the largest temples in ancient Greece. Built over several centuries and completed in 131 AD during Roman rule, it consisted of 104 colossal columns that reached an impressive height. Today, only a few columns remain standing; however, they still evoke a sense of awe and wonder among visitors who come to witness their majesty. This site holds immense historical significance and attracts tourists from all over the world who are eager to explore Athens' rich cultural heritage. As we gaze upon this photo print, we are transported back in time to an era when gods were worshipped and magnificent structures adorned cityscapes. It serves as a reminder that even after centuries have passed since its construction, The Temple of Olympian Zeus continues to inspire admiration for its architectural prowess and symbolizes Greece's enduring legacy as the birthplace of Western civilization.
