EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the breathtaking view of the Theatre at Sardis and a meticulously detailed plan of the Ionic Temple at Sardis. Created by Italian artist Giovanni Battista Borra in 1750, this artwork beautifully combines pen and ink, watercolor, wash, gouache, and pencil on paper. The Theatre at Sardis is an ancient wonder of the world that continues to awe spectators with its grandeur. The image captures the magnificence of this architectural marvel as it stands proudly amidst the ruins. Its imposing structure evokes a sense of history and transports viewers back to a time when it was bustling with life.

The artist's attention to detail allows us to appreciate every aspect of this masterpiece. Displayed in Yale Center for British Art's Paul Mellon Collection in America, this artwork serves as a testament to Borra's skillful craftsmanship and his ability to capture both beauty and historical significance within one composition.
