PROLOGUE
1. See R. K. Sutton, Americans Interpret the Parthenon: The Progression of Greek Revival Architecture from the East Coast to Oregon, 1800–1860 (Niwot: University Press of Colorado, 1992). William Strickland consciously modeled the Second Bank of the United States (1818–1824) in Philadelphia on the Parthenon, directly copying architectural details from Stuart and Revett’s Antiquities of Athens, 2: plates 1–9. Strickland painted palmettes on the underside of the entablature, rather than having them carved, because that is how they appear in Stuart and Revett’s plates; Antiquities of Athens, 2: plate 6. The Philadelphia Museum of Art is commonly called “the Parthenon on the Parkway” and its location “the Acropolis of Philadelphia”; indeed, it faithfully follows optical refinements used on the Parthenon itself. See L. Haselberger, “Nineteenth- and Twentieth-Century Curvatures in Europe and North America: A Preliminary List,” in Appearance and Essence: Refinements of Classical Architecture: Curvature, ed. L. Haselberger (Philadelphia: University Museum, University of Pennsylvania, 1999), 310–11. For an excellent overview, see P. Tournikiotis, “The Place of the Parthenon in the History and Theory of Modern Architecture,” in Tournikiotis, Parthenon, 202–29.
2. Winckelmann, Geschichte der Kunst des Alterthums, 26, 316. The book became an instant classic, directly influencing the views of Lessing, Herder, Goethe, Hölderlin, Heine, Nietzsche, and others. See E. Décultot, Johann Joachim Winckelmann: Enquête sur la genèse de l’histoire de l’art (Paris: Presses Universitaires de France, 2000); J. Morrison, Winckelmann and the Notion of Aesthetic Education (Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1996); R.

In 295 B.C., the tyrant of Athens, Lachares, cut off parts of the statue’s gold robe to pay his army (when threatened by Demetrios of Macedon’s assault on Athens). See Plutarch, Moralia 379c–d; Athenaios, Deipnosophists 9.405; Pausanias, Description of Greece 1.25.7, 1.29.16; Habicht, Athens from Alexander to Antony, 81–87; W. B.

26. And all that the word “ruin” entails. Efforts to connect with the fragmentary structure, to transform it, and to even make it whole again, began immediately and continue to this day. See Hamilakis, Nation and Its Ruins, 243–301. I thank Yannis Hamilakis for helpful discussions of these issues.
27. R. Ousterhout, “Bestride the Very Peak of Heaven: The Parthenon After Antiquity,” in Neils, Parthenon, 322–24, explains how the little mosque must have been built after 1699, when the French ambassador Comte de Ferriol visited the Acropolis. He suggests it might have been part of repairs made in 1708. The mosque appears for the first time in drawings made in 1755 by J. D. Le Roy. See also Korres, “Parthenon from Antiquity to the 19th Century,” 155–56; M.
