Thomas Cole, Dream of Arcadia, About 1839, Oil paint on canvas, Gift of Mrs. Lindsey Centry, 1954.71, Denver Art Museum

Arcadia a true phenomenon!!!
Birthplace of gods, myths, legends, nymphs, heroes but also power and knowledge. Arcadia has played important role in the history of humanity. Its history losts in the mists of time, when the moon hadn't appeared yet and agriculture hadn't developed. It said that Arcadia is the cradle of world civilization, since here was founded the first city in the world, Lycosura and the first civilization by the first King of pelasgians Lycaon and to the third King Arkas attributed the first farming and teaching how to make bread and clothes. In honour of their King Arkas the pelasgians renamed to Arcadians and their land Arcadia until today.
Myths and truths alternated in this magical place. Myths like Lycaon's, Callisto and Arkas and mythical gods like Zeus, Hera, Artemis, Pan, legends like Deucalion and nymphs and also the idyllic landscape of Arcadia  composed the Bucolic poetry and music, invented by Arcadian shepherds in the Arcadian mountains.
During the Renaissance and the Enlightenment the Arcadian myth was destined to influence the European culture creating philosophical, literary and artistic currents that form the basis of European spirit and cultural and so, the Arcadian Ideal was born - is the reminiscence of innocent life in a pastoral paradise. It is nostalgia for the pure values of a nature life, a tribute to the Arcadian rule that doesn't allow humans to impose on nature. A world of knowledge and power. The Renaissance codified the Arcadian Ideal in the enigmatic phrase ''ET IN ARCADIA EGO'' - I too was in Arcadia.
Today Arcadia of the fertile plains, the lofty mountains, the virgin forests, rivers, caves, gorges and indented pristine beaches, of the wealth ancient, historical and Byzantine monuments, the traditional cities and villages, of the luxurious hotels, villas and sports in the rivers and mountains but also great food and famous wine Moschofilero Mantinia, invites you to find out the secret of '' ET IN ARCADIA EGO'', because Arcadia, like all miracles, can not be explained, Just experienced...
