One of the most beautiful is &#8220;Greece and the world&#8221; where he connects freedom with Greece and the world, exclaiming:<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Without freedom, what would you be, oh! Greece without you, what would the world be like! &#8221;<br \/>\n\u00abOhne dieFreiheit, was w\u00e4rest du Hellas? Ohne dich, Hellas, was w\u00e4re die Welt? \u00bb.<\/p>\n<p>Many German painters chose Philhellenic themes, expressing their solidarity with the struggle of the Greeks. At the same time, it is the German painters who, through their works, highlighted the heroic dimension of the Greek fighters and their struggle.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_12314\" style=\"width: 272px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-12314\" class=\" wp-image-12314\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eefshp.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/CLIO-33.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"262\" height=\"319\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.eefshp.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/CLIO-33.png 1128w, https:\/\/www.eefshp.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/CLIO-33-246x300.png 246w, https:\/\/www.eefshp.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/CLIO-33-768x935.png 768w, https:\/\/www.eefshp.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/CLIO-33-846x1030.png 846w, https:\/\/www.eefshp.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/CLIO-33-579x705.png 579w, https:\/\/www.eefshp.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/CLIO-33-450x548.png 450w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 262px) 100vw, 262px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-12314\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Early 19th century, painting by the German-Swiss Philhellene, military and painter Carl Wilhelm Freiherr von Heideck (1788 &#8211;
