Title:
Ancient Wonder of the World, Temple of Artemis
Caption:
"Soaring Ionic Facade of the Temple of the Ephesian Diana". In this reconstruction, the fifth and last Temple of the Ephesian Artemis is shown. It is presented here as colorful with the metal and marble it actually had, not cold and white as most interpretations of Greek temples. In it were to be found the most priceless works of art of the age and countless hoards of treasure deposited there for safety by the Asiatic states. Begun about 350BC, it was not yet complete when Alexander the Great visited Ephesus in 334, and the Ephesians jealously refused to accept his offer to bear this heavy cost of construction.
