EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Vicinity of Troy; The Shores of the Propontis; Olympia" takes us on a visual journey through ancient history and mythology. Created by William R. Shepherd, this colour lithograph is part of a private collection and showcases his talent for bringing historical landscapes to life. The image transports us to the vicinity of Troy, where we can almost feel the echoes of its legendary past. The shores of the Propontis stretch out before us, their serene beauty contrasting with the tumultuous tales that unfolded here. As we gaze upon this scene, it becomes evident why these shores were so integral to both mythological and historical narratives. Intriguingly, Shepherd's work also includes an illustration for a Historical Atlas, emphasizing his dedication to accuracy and detail in depicting significant locations like Olympia. This mythical city was not only renowned for hosting the ancient Olympic Games but also held great religious significance as a hub for pagan worship. Through this photo print, we are reminded of the rich tapestry woven by various religions throughout history - from polytheism to paganism - each leaving its mark on cultures and societies worldwide. As we delve into this mesmerizing artwork captured by Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, let our imagination wander back in time while appreciating how art can beautifully preserve moments from our collective pasts.
