2 Stop 2 of 10 on Fingerprints on the Parthenon

The Pikionis Paths

Acropolis, Athens

A Preview

"This winding stone path, and the little church and shelter along it, are the work of an architect named Dimitris Pikionis, and the path is worth looking down at, because almost nobody does. Look at the paving under your feet. No two stones are the same shape. Slabs of marble, rough chunks of rock, pieces of broken tile, a scrap of carved molding here and there."
