Description: This real photo postcard depicts the famous "Dying Achilles" marble statue reclining in the gardens of the Achillion Palace on the island of Corfu, Greece. The neoclassical palace, built for Empress Elisabeth of Austria (Sisi) in 1889, features lush tropical gardens lined with palm trees, cypress trees, and a terrace adorned with additional classical statues visible in the background. The Achillion was later used by Kaiser Wilhelm II and is noted for its mythological sculptural program; a handwritten note on the back identifies this as the "former home of Kaiser."
