Summary

Description
English: L'Acropolis à Athènes. Hand-colored etching with aquatint by Appert, based on a daguerreotype photograph taken by Pierre-Gustave Joly (Joly de Lotbinière) in October, 1939. Illustration in: Excursions daguerriennes, Paris: Noël Paymal Lerebours publisher, 1842, plate 21. The image shows, in the foreground, the columns of the Olympian Zeus and, in the background, the Acropolis. The notes of the photographer (see below) provide more details about the image.

Excerpt from the notes of Pierre-Gustave Joly:
"October 1839. View of the columns of Olympian Jupiter, taken from the left bank of the Ilyssos, from the stadium. There are 16 columns; above the last two columns of the main group, there is a small rough structure into which had lived an ascetic or holy man, so the people call those columns the fool's columns ; at their foot is seen the Arch of Hadrian on which is written on the side: here is the city of Hadrian. That arch is much taller than it looks here, the level of the base being below that of the columns of Jupiter. In the backgroud the Acropolis and the temple of Minerva or Parthenon."

Français : L'Acropolis à Athènes. Exemplaire imprimé d'une gravure faite à partir d'une photographie daguerréotype prise par Pierre-Gustave Joly (Joly de Lotbinière) en octobre 1939. Gravée par Appert. Aquateinte. Colorée à la main. Publiée dans Excursions daguerriennes, éditeur Noël Paymal Lerebours, Paris, 1842, planche 21. L'image montre, au premier plan, les colonnes du temple de Zeus olympien et, au loin, l'Acropole. Les notes du photographe (voir ci-dessous) fournissent des détails supplémentaires au sujet de l'image.

Extrait des notes de Pierre-Gustave Joly :
« Octobre 1839. Vue des colonnes de Jupiter olympien, prise de la rive gauche de l'Ilyssus, depuis le stadium. Ces colonnes sont au nombre de 16, au dessus des deux dernières colonnes du groupe principal se trouve une petite construction des plus grossières dans laquelle demeurait autrefois un Santon ou Saint, ainsi les gens du peuple appellent-ils ces colonnes les colonnes du fou ; à leur pied se voit la porte d'Adrien sur laquelle se lit sur le côté : ici est la ville d'Adrien. Cette porte est beaucoup plus haute qu'elle ne le paraît ici, le niveau de la base étant plus bas que celui des colonnes de Jupiter. Dans le fond l'Acropole et le temple de Minerve ou Parthénon. »[1]
