EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph by Joseph Pennell transports us to the ancient city of Girgenti in Sicily, Italy. The Temple of Concord on the Wall stands proudly against the rising sun, its Doric columns reaching towards the heavens. As we gaze upon this archaeological site, we are reminded of the rich history and architectural wonders left behind by ancient Greece. Pennell's meticulous attention to detail brings out every intricate feature of this ruined temple. The lithotint technique used in this print adds depth and texture to capture the essence of time that has weathered these majestic ruins. The play between light and shadow creates a sense of mystery, inviting us to explore further into this historical landscape. As we contemplate this artwork, it is impossible not to marvel at how science and religion intertwine within these ancient structures. The solar system seems to align with the temple's grandeur as if paying homage to its celestial significance. Displayed in an art gallery or museum setting, "The Temple of Concord on the Wall" serves as a reminder of our shared heritage and cultural legacy. It invites viewers from all walks of life to appreciate both the artistic mastery behind Pennell's work and the enduring beauty found within ancient architecture. Through his lithograph, Pennell allows us a glimpse into a world long gone but forever preserved through art – an eternal testament to human creativity and ingenuity.
