EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating black and white lithograph created by Joseph Pennell. This remarkable print transports us to ancient Greece, specifically the archaeological site of Agrigento in Sicily, Italy. The image showcases the majestic ruins of Doric temples that stand proudly against the backdrop of a picturesque landscape. Pennell's meticulous attention to detail brings out the architectural grandeur of these ancient structures. The lithotint technique used in this print adds depth and texture to every line and shadow, enhancing our appreciation for both artistry and history. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are reminded of the rich heritage that lies within these ruins. They serve as a testament to an era long gone but not forgotten - a time when religion played a significant role in society. The National Gallery of Art Washington has preserved this exceptional piece as part of its collection, allowing us to experience firsthand Pennell's mastery in capturing historical sites through his artistic lens. "The Temples on the Wall, Girgenti, 1913" invites us to reflect on our connection with ancient civilizations and their enduring influence on our present-day world. It serves as a reminder that even amidst ruin and decay, there is beauty waiting to be discovered - just like these magnificent temples standing tall against time itself.
