🔸 Portrait of Eva Palmer Sikelianos, taken circa 1907. She was a prominent figure in the movement toward reviving ancient Greek artistic and cultural practices during the early twentieth century. Sikelianos is remembered for her love of Greece and her decision to embrace a lifestyle that mirrored the country’s ancient history. A New York debutante, she studied ancient Greek and Latin briefly at Bryn Mawr College but left school to pursue an unconventional artistic life. She became a crucial member of the lesbian circle of Natalie Clifford Barney but then moved to Greece and married Angelos Sikelianos. #victorianchaps #portrait #vintage #evapalmersikelianos #edwardian #greece🇬🇷 #goodolddays #1900s #lgbt #pastlives #history #retro #nostalgia #oldphoto https://www.instagram.com/p/CgWWQBlAj4f/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The power of Poseidon lives on through the centuries in the awe-inspiring Poseidon of Melos statue.
Located at the National Archeological Museum in Athens, the Poseidon of Melos statue is one of the most captivating ancient artworks in the world, and has a rich and fascinating history.
With its magnificent form and lifelike details, the Poseidon of Melos statue is a true work of art. Discovered on the Greek island of Melos in 1877, the statue depicts the god Poseidon in all his power and majesty. The god is shown standing tall and proud, his muscular body and regal features capturing the essence of power and strength. From the intricate detailing of his hair and beard to the intricate folds of his robes, the statue is a masterful example of ancient Greek artistry.
But the story of the Poseidon of Melos statue is just as intriguing as its appearance. It was originally discovered on the island of Melos, which was once home to one of the most thriving ancient civilisations in the Greek world. The statue was believed to have been created around 100 BC and likely symbolised the island's wealth and prosperity.
