Crupi, Giovanni (1849-1925) - n. 0118 - Tempio della Concordia - Girgenti

Temple of Athena Nike. One of the most diminutive but beautiful temples in Athens is that of Athena Nike which stands just at the right of the approach to the Acropolis. It consists entirely of Pentilic marble and although only 18 feet wide and 27 feet long is one of the most beautiful buildings on the hill. It has a portico of four Ionic columns at the front and back but none at the sides. The temple has often been miscalled the temple of "Wingless Victory"

Statliest of All. Imposing and stately the old Parthenon still frowns down from its seat of honor upon the Acropolis, battered and wrecked by time but still the most magnificent monument of ancient art. No other building in the world approaches it for beauty. It is the first spot sought by tourists in the modern Athens and everyone gathers to pay homage to bygone ages at its portals. Just beneath the old hill which once marked the splendor of the Grecian empire today are the crowded districts of the modern city. In those sections the American Red Cross has brought a new idea by opening baby clinics and welfare stations where children are treated and mothers taught the proper care of babies
