EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph captures the intricate detail of the Pergamon Altar, a masterpiece of Hellenistic art housed in the Pergamon Museum in Berlin, Germany. Built between 164 and 156 BC by order of Eumenes II Soter, the ruler of Pergamon in Asia Minor, the altar showcases the epic battle between the Olympian gods and the Titans, also known as the Gigantomachy. The West frieze of the altar, depicted in the photograph, illustrates the fierce struggle between Amphitrite, the goddess of the sea, and her son Triton, and the giants. Amphitrite is shown riding on the back of a sea monster, while Triton, with his fishtail, engages in combat with the giants. The detail of their muscular bodies, the veins on their skin, and the intricate folds of their clothing are all beautifully rendered in marble and limestone. The altar's interior is adorned with Ionic columns, creating a monumental and awe-inspiring atmosphere. The altar's exterior is decorated with a colonnade and features colossal figures of horses and lions, adding to its grandeur. The altar's intricate carvings and high relief are a testament to the artistic skill of the artists of the school of Pergamon during the Hellenistic period. The Pergamon Altar is a must-see for anyone interested in ancient history, mythology, or art. Its intricate detail and historical significance make it a treasure of the ancient world, and a reminder of the rich cultural heritage of Greece and Rome.
