EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Conquerors Of Salamis" we are transported back in time to witness the Greeks celebrating their momentous victory over the Persian navy in the Battle of Salamis. The battle, which took place in September 480 BC in the Gulf of Aegina near Athens, marked a turning point in ancient history. The image beautifully captures the essence of triumph and jubilation as Greek men and women revel in their hard-fought victory. Their faces radiate happiness and elation, reflecting the immense pride they feel for defending their homeland against formidable adversaries. A majestic Greek vessel dominates the foreground, symbolizing not only military prowess but also an embodiment of Greek civilization's strength and resilience. Its sails billow with pride as it stands tall amidst a sea that witnessed both conflict and glory. The landscape surrounding them serves as a reminder of Europe's rich ancient heritage, where civilizations clashed and flourished. It is within these historical moments that we find inspiration for our present-day struggles. This remarkable artwork by F. Cormon transports us to an era long gone but never forgotten—a testament to human perseverance, courage, and unity against all odds. As we gaze upon this scene from centuries past, let us remember those who came before us—the conquerors who shaped our world today through sacrifice and unwavering determination.
