A couple of quotes that I’m sure the writer would not have applied to these photos,

Greek  Design and Decoration  by Dimitris Philippides

To incorporate the material of decoration into a general outline of art could be a dangerous undertaking: equally to disregard its mere existence would certainly be damaging. The consequences of our approach will be revealed gradually as we wander through the wonderful ‘forest of symbols’ awaiting us.

Each era, by right, sees and interprets the past through its own eyes, distorting reality accordingly.
