EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable detail of a Greek ship with a large steering oar, captured in an exquisite relief carving dating back to the 2nd century BC. The relief is found on the rocks of Acropolis at Lindos, Rhodes, Greece, and serves as a testament to the rich artistic heritage and nautical prowess of ancient Greece. The intricate sculpture beautifully captures the essence of transportation in this historic era. The vibrant colors bring life to the artwork, highlighting its significance as both an artifact and a concept that symbolizes water transport during ancient times. The location itself adds another layer of fascination to this piece. Lindos, situated on the island of Rhodes, was renowned for its maritime activities and played a crucial role in trade routes throughout history. This relief carving stands as a visual representation of Lindos' historical importance as well as Greece's overall contribution to seafaring. As we admire this photograph print by CM Dixon - not affiliated with any commercial use - we are transported back in time to witness the craftsmanship and ingenuity behind ancient Greek artistry. It serves as a reminder that even centuries later, these artifacts continue to captivate our imagination and provide us with glimpses into civilizations long gone but never forgotten.
