Deel van het fries van het Parthenon in Athene, afgebeeld een man en een paard before 1868

This photograph by G. Arosa et Cie, taken before 1868, captures a section of the Parthenon frieze depicting a man and a horse. The image is a black and white photograph of a marble relief sculpture. The man is shown standing beside a horse with his right arm outstretched. This photograph is part of a series documenting the "Frises du Parthenon," a series of relief sculptures that adorned the temple of Athena Parthenos on the Acropolis of Athens. This series of photographs offer valuable documentation of the Parthenon's ancient sculptures, which were a major achievement of classical Greek art and continue to inspire and fascinate viewers today.
