Where Sicily, Italy
When 1994
Photographer William Albert Allard

"Stately ruins of the Greek Temple of Hera keep company with the wildflowers at Selinus more than two millennia after its dedication. At least seven temples once stood here, the westernmost outpost of Greece's presence in Sicily. Attacked in warfare and toppled by earthquakes, two of the temples were partly reconstructed earlier this century."

—From "Italy Apart: Sicily," August 1995, National Geographic magazine
