A unique photographic album with interesting photographs of Athens, based on the film of the same name "Athens from East to West, 1821-1896," a production by PROTEAS & PROTEUS NY Inc., researched, scripted, and directed by Maria Iliou, with historical consultant Alexander Kitroeff. Through rare archival photographic material (mostly unknown until now in our country), for the search and collection of which many years of systematic work were required, the different moments of Athens' history unfold, from a small oriental town of eight thousand inhabitants in 1821, with remarkable examples of urban architecture and numerous classical and Byzantine monuments, it was declared the capital of the newly formed Greek state in 1834 and in less than a hundred years transformed into a modern neoclassical city with 130,000 inhabitants, hosting the first international Olympic Games of the modern era.
