From this evening's walk: the monument of Lysicrates in Athens, 🇬🇷. 4th c. BC.

He sponsored a group of artists who won a prize in a theatrical contest. Then he erected this, to show his appreciation to the city.

#photography #Athens #forografia
The Choragic Monument of Lysicrates near the Acropolis of Athens was erected by the choregos Lysicrates, a wealthy patron of musical performances in the Theater of Dionysus, to commemorate the prize in the dithyramb contest of the City Dionysia in 335/334 BCE, of which performance he was liturgist.
