Athens, Greece. The Porch of the Maidens, Erechtheum, Acropolis was erected in 421-406 B.C. It was designed by Ictinus and Callicartes. Maidens (known as Caryatids) replace columns in the porch of the Erechtheum. The originals today have been replaced by fiber glass reproductions due to concerns over pollution erosion. The building’s site is supposedly where Athena and Poseidon contested to become the city’s patron deity. They will accent your bookshelves with grace, majesty, and distinction. Made from resin with an antique patina, 8"H x 4.5"W x 4.5"D each.
