The Calf-Bearer and the Kritios Boy Shortly After Exhumation on the Acropolis; Danseuse du Temple de Bacchus, ca. 1865, Albumen silver print from glass negative, Mount: 12 in. × 10 7/8 in. ( × cm), Photographs, Unknown, From 1833, when the Turkish garrison was withdrawn, until 1882, when systematic excavations were begun, the Acropolis was the site of somewhat random investigation. As the Turkish buildings were cleared and the principal temples re-erected, the debris yielded inscriptions that were incorporated into the walls as they were reconstructed and fragments of sculpture that were casually grouped together outdoors or in the Propylaea
