7 Wonders of the Ancient World: The Temple of Artemis at Ephesus (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Beloved ancient Greek poet Pindar described the Amazons’ battles with Hercules before the Trojan war, around the 12th century B.C. He credited the temple’s initial founding directly to the Amazons. However, Greek geographer Pausanias (circa A.D. 110–circa A.D. 180) corrected Pindar’s claim, arguing that it was well-known that the temple site predated both the Amazons’ and Ionians’ arrival in Ephesus around 1,000 B.C. The temple was finally completed 120 years later, though the Lydian empire no l
The Colossus of Rhodes: An Engineering Triumph, Defiant Symbol, and Short-Lived Wonder (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The sudden death of Alexander the Great in 323 B.C. left his kingdom divided among his generals who soon became rivals. By 305 B.C., most of what is today southern Greece, Turkey, and all of the eastern Mediterranean coast down to Gaza belonged to Antigonus, one of Alexander’s former generals. Much to his chagrin, Egypt still belonged to Ptolemy, another of Alexander’s generals, while a single island in the Aegean Sea remained independent. That island was Rhodes, and it was the site of one of th
7 Wonders of the Ancient World: Lighthouse of Alexandria (opens the original)
Read excerpt
According to Plutarch (circa A.D. 50–A.D. 120), he took a handful of barley and dropped it onto the ground in the shape of the street grid that would become Alexandria. When a flock of birds swooped down to devour the barley, Alexander initially took it as a bad omen. His men reassured him it was a sign of his future city’s prosperity and the millions of mouths it would feed. It was long rumored that Ptolemy may have been Alexander’s illegitimate half-brother, but more recent scholarship suggest
Seven Wonders of the Ancient World: The Hanging Gardens of Babylon (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Great Pyramid of Giza still stands after 4,500 years. The submerged ruins of the Lighthouse of Alexandria can still be explored by scuba divers. The foundations of the Mausoleum of Halicarnassus and the Temple of Artemis remain intact. Phidias’s workshop for the Statue of Zeus has survived along with coins depicting the Colossus of Rhodes. But the Hanging Gardens of Babylon remain an epic hypothetical. Though numerous accounts from Babylonian, Greek, Egyptian, and Roman historians have survi
Jean-Antoine Watteau and the Dawn of Rococo Painting (opens the original)
Read excerpt
French painting during and after the reign of King Louis XIV presents a stark contrast. This era, referred to as the rococo, emerged from the opulence of the baroque like a breath of fresh air with its light, airy colors and pastoral settings. The dominant style departed sharply from dramatic historical and mythological scenes and formal portraiture. Ensuring a rapid transition to French administrative systems and forced cultural assimilations, the decisive victory came in the peak years of Loui
