The Lost City

Abstract Acrylic Painting

This painting vividly expresses the theme of lost ancient cities submerged in ocean waters, focusing on the remnants of sunken artifacts from long-lost civilizations. These ruins tell a captivating story of once-thriving cultures that were swallowed by the sea, leaving behind fragments that continue to spark curiosity and awe. The Mediterranean Sea is home to several submerged ruins, particularly along the northern coast of Egypt. One of the most significant and fascinating sites is the ancient city of Alexandria. Beneath its bustling modern streets lies a hidden world of sunken relics from past civilizations. These include artifacts from the Pharaonic era, which speak to Egypt’s powerful ancient past, as well as Greek relics, a testament to Alexandria’s rich Hellenistic history. In fact, the current city of Alexandria was built atop its ancient counterpart, and many of the city's monumental structures, temples, and palaces once stood in this sunken world now submerged under the Mediterranean’s vast waters. The remnants of these ancient civilizations, now resting beneath the waves, offer a glimpse into a forgotten world, where ancient technology, art, and culture thrived. Their preservation under water allows these cities to continue captivating historians and archaeologists alike, offering valuable insights into the world of antiquity.
