The rediscovery of Greece. Travellers and painters of the Romantic era

Introduction: Sir Steven Runciman

How did the European travellers and the European art see, understand and describe the Greek reality of the 19th century? How were the Greeks and their national revolution described by the Europeans? These are some of the main questions explored by this book, highlighting a rich material, which comes from the collections of the Benaki Museum and other Greek and foreign museums and private collections.
