Gate of Athena from the Roman Agora



Stefanos Lanza (1861-1933)
Gate of Athena from the Roman Agora
oil on canvas
AGLC 76 @ A.G Leventis Gallery

Greek archaeological subjects and monuments, either in oil or watercolour, feature prominently in his oeuvre. His two views of antiquities in Athens, the Column of the Temple of Olympian Zeus and the Gate of Athena from the Roman Agora, are two fairly large-scale paintings; they indicate that his landscape paintings, dating from the 20th century, continued to fuse a Neoclassical approach with the Romantic spirit of European travellers, a style that also characterised his father’s work ¬– whose watercolour views of the Acropolis, the Odeon of Herod Atticus and the Temple of Olympian Zeus in Athens are also on display in the A. G. Leventis Gallery.
