EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling Market Place of Argos, Greece in 1903. The focus of the image is the majestic Larisa, an ancient citadel that towers at a staggering height of 950 feet. Standing proudly against the clear sky, it serves as a reminder of Greece's rich history and fortification. The scene is filled with activity as locals go about their daily lives. Men, women, and children can be seen engaged in various tasks - some busy trading goods at market stalls while others leisurely observe their surroundings. A group of boys and girls playfully gather near one corner, adding a touch of youthful energy to the atmosphere. Amidst this vibrant setting, mules patiently carry loads for merchants navigating through narrow streets lined with traditional buildings. The architecture reflects both Greek heritage and influences from neighboring regions like Thessaly and Peloponnese. Captured by artists Elmer Underwood and Bert Elias Underwood as part of their renowned Underwood Travel Library collection, this stereograph offers a glimpse into life during the early 20th century in Greece. With its impeccable detail and composition, it transports viewers to another era where ancient landmarks coexist harmoniously with everyday activities. This remarkable piece from The Print Collector allows us to appreciate not only the beauty but also the historical significance embedded within this snapshot from Argos' past.
