The Acropolis from the Temple of Jupiter, Athens 1913

American artist Joseph Pennell created this evocative lithograph, "The Acropolis from the Temple of Jupiter, Athens," in 1913. The artwork captures the grandeur of ancient Greece through the crumbling remains of the Temple of Olympian Zeus, with the Acropolis rising in the background, showcasing the powerful contrast between past and present. Pennell's skillful use of line and shading evokes a sense of history and decay, drawing the viewer into the ancient landscape.
