EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the historic Battle of Marathon, a defining moment in ancient Greek history. The image depicts Miltiades, leading a brave force of 11,000 Athenians and Plataeans against the formidable Persian army commanded by Darius Hystaspes. The sheer scale of this clash is evident as the outnumbered Greeks stand resolute on the battlefield, ready to defend their homeland against overwhelming odds. This woodcut engraving beautifully captures the intensity and chaos of war, with intricate detailing that brings forth an air of authenticity. The significance of this battle cannot be overstated; it marked a turning point in Greece's struggle for independence from Persian rule. Against all expectations, Miltiades' strategic brilliance led to a stunning victory over Darius' mighty forces. As we gaze upon this remarkable illustration technique, we are transported back to fifth-century BC Greece - a time when classical Greek culture flourished amidst great adversity. The lithograph evokes feelings of awe and admiration for these ancient warriors who fought valiantly for their freedom. This print serves as both a testament to human resilience and an homage to one of history's most pivotal moments. It reminds us that even in times of darkness, courage can prevail and shape the course of civilizations forever.
