The Sites of Ancient Greece Bewertungen

A fresh, Zeus's-eye perspective on landscapes, and sites, that ring with ancient and mythological significance.-Metro

With tales of strife and discord the daily bread of Greece, it is easy to forget why the country has beguiled everyone from ancient poets to modern holiday-makers. This book, however, with its 150 bird's-eye photographs, is a salutary reminder.-The Independent

Aerial views like the 100 images in Georg Gerster's The Sites of Ancient Greece... Achieve a perspective even those immortals can envy.-The Wall Street Journal

Gaze at the bright blues and whites of timeless Greece with aerial photography at its best.-Boston.com

These photographs are at once striking images unto themselves and documents of a time and place. This time is now but the place is the past - we are at once straddling the space where time simply collapses. And in being in this space, Gerster allows us to consider the photograph itself as a means to telling us a story which has no beginning and no end.-La Lettre de la Photographie
