The great fête, St. George's Day, Athens
Pennell, Joseph, 1857-1926 · 1913
"On the afternoon of St. George's Day I wandered out of the city up to the Acropolis, and found the whole plain and the approaches crowded; while the stairs were black with people, and so were the lofty platforms. The fête that afternoon, as I saw it from Mars Hill, was more real than any restoration or imaginations." Joseph Pennell.
