Bring stunning panoramic photography into your space with this high-quality 15" x 5" Old Tower Rhodes print, designed for exceptional detail and longevity.
Printed on lustre photographic paper, it features a semi-matt finish with a subtle, speckled sheen that minimizes glare - ideal for bright rooms or spaces with direct lighting.
Includes a 1/4-inch white border for a refined, ready-to-frame presentation.
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 (Rodos Guide). 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 (Wikipedia).
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 (Rodos Guide, Wikipedia). 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 (Rodos Guide, Wikipedia).
Taken while strolling along the moat, my photograph focuses on a large rounded tower near the medieval moat theater, standing quietly behind stretches of defensive wall. The sun brings out the soft tones in the stone and highlights the plants clinging to the cracks and ledges. The curved pathway gives the whole image flow, while the architecture keeps it grounded. A great choice for anyone who loves old-world structures and timeless textures.

Thank you so very much the mugs are really lovely and you have kept me informed how my order was doing right up to the delivery, your service is 1st class and I will be doing business with you again.
Wonderful card that was delivered quickly and exceptional service. Will definitely buy more in the future.
Loved this image of our wedding day and was appropriate for our anniversary too...
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
