/ daguérreotype Lerebours ; Imp. de Bougeard ; Appert sc. Abstract/medium: 1 print : etching and aquatint, color, with hand-coloring. L'Acropolis à Athènes. Print of an engraving based on a daguerreotype photograph taken by Pierre-Gustave Joly (Pierre-Gustave Joly de Lotbinière) in October, 1939. Engraved by Appert. Etching and aquatint, color, with hand-coloring. 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."
