EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the intricate facade and detailed plan of rooms in an ancient Greek house, providing a glimpse into the daily life of residents in Athens, Greece. The image showcases various areas such as the Thyrorion or hallway A, stables B, servants room C, Perystilion or minor courtyard D, and many more.
Each room serves a specific purpose within the household, from banquets in the Triclinium to relaxation in the Thalamus or bedroom. The layout also includes spaces for laundry (Gineceo), toilets (Amphithalamus), picture galleries (Pinacotheca), libraries (S), and guest houses (V).
The handcoloured copperplate engraving by Corsi beautifully illustrates the historical architecture and design of this ancient Greek dwelling. The attention to detail in each room's depiction provides a fascinating insight into how people lived during that time period.
As you study this print closely, you can almost imagine yourself walking through each space and experiencing what life was like thousands of years ago. It is truly a remarkable piece that highlights both the beauty and functionality of ancient Greek homes.
