The deer statues at Mandraki Harbour are among the best-known symbols of Rhodes. Standing on tall stone columns, the stag and doe (known locally as Elafos and Elafina) are said to mark the spot where the legendary Colossus of Rhodes once stood - one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. While there's no real evidence the Colossus actually straddled the harbour, it's a fun bit of myth to go with the view. These modern statues welcome visitors arriving by boat and have come to represent the island's quiet pride and natural beauty. Whether you believe the legends or not, there's no denying they look fantastic framed against a clear blue sky.
This shot shows both deer statues with the fortress and lighthouse beyond, all set under a flawless sky. It's one of those scenes where history, myth and beauty come together. I wanted to capture a sense of place - the stillness, the light, the heritage. This would make a great gift for anyone with a soft spot for Greece, or a classy reminder of Rhodes if you've been lucky enough to visit.

Absolutely wonderful photo! I bought it for my grandson but my daughter loved it so much that we decided it would be a waste to put it on his bedroom wall. The quality and detail demands a place where everyone can see it. I would definitely recommend this to family and friends. Thank you for the quick delivery too!
Thrilled to bits with the picture , better than expected
Loved this image of our wedding day and was appropriate for our anniversary too...
Brilliant customer service from the start with an easy website to navigate. Unfortunately when my order arrived the print was damaged, contacted Carol who sent another out for me straight away and kept me updated along the way. Absolutely fantastic service. Thank you
Lovely soft cushion and excellent print. Very pleased with it.
