Street in Athens, 1854. Creator: Unknown
Street in Athens, 1854. View of...the every-day life of Athens, in one of its public thoroughfares, wherein we have a glimpse of its ancient and modern buildings, and the picturesque crowds which people its streets. The classic edifice upon the right is the Stoa of Hadrian [Roman remains], which stands near the market place, and is partly concealed by modern erections. Eight Corinthian columns, with their capitals, remain perfect, and project in front of the ancient wall of the inclosure; the column in the foreground is six feet in advance, and the arched gateway leads to a barrack. The old Mosque in the mid-distance is used as a Gymnasium, as well as for musical performances. The street is crowded with fruit-sellers, all males; not a woman is to be even seen serving in the shops; such is the prevailing custom in the Levant'. From "Illustrated London News", 1854
