My older sister went to the University of Delaware for Art History. During her time there, she was able to take Art History I in Greece. All the pictures are from her trip. The top picture is of the top of a Corinthian Column from the Basilica of St. Titus. Pictured on the right, in Gortyn, Greece, are the remains of the basilica. It is believed that Titus was sent by Paul to go and minister to the people in Gortyn and that he preached in this building. Archeologists have found, from the ruins, that the structures from Gortyn were comprised of different time periods such as Minoan, Hellenistic, and Roman buildings.

I find Greek architecture so interesting. Especially the Corinthian columns. The intricacy of the carving they did is so fascinating and mesmerizing. I have always, also, been interested in Greek history and art as well as their mythology. It was thrilling getting to see the sculptures that were in the pediment of the Parthenon when I went to the British Museum in London.
