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. - Kim S, Pontefract
Greek Fortifications framed poster - cleanly presented and available up to 24in x 16in.
This composition focuses on the angular tower and defensive walls extending into the distance, emphasising scale and perspective. The warm stone against the open sky creates a clean, architectural aesthetic that suits modern interiors with an appreciation for history and structure.
The medieval walls that encircle Rhodes Old Town stretch roughly 4 km and were constructed over several centuries, starting in antiquity and substantially rebuilt by the Knights Hospitaller between about 1457 and 1465 under Grand Master Antonio Fluvian de Riviere. They were erected upon earlier Byzantine fortifications that had survived the siege of Demetrius Poliorcetes in 305 BC and were rebuilt following the earthquake of 226 BC.
By the late medieval period, the walls boasted 11 gates - including Gate d'Amboise (completed in 1512 under Grand Master Emery d'Amboise), the St Athanasius Gate (1441-1442), and Marine Gate - alongside numerous bastions and towers assigned to different knightly 'langues' of the Order. The walls withstood Mamluk attacks in 1444 and a massive Ottoman siege in 1480 before finally falling in 1522 after a sustained six-month campaign.
Taken while strolling along the moat, my photograph captures a strong central view of one of the fortress towers, framed by solid stone walls and rugged landscape. The pathway leading in gives the whole scene a sense of purpose - as if you could walk right up and be transported to another time. With the stonework glowing under that blue sky, it's a striking piece for anyone drawn to ancient places and powerful shapes.
