EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intricate ceramic detail of the Sher Dor madressa, located in Registan Square, Samarkand, Uzbekistan. The entrance of this historical site showcases a remarkable display of skill and craftsmanship that is truly awe-inspiring. The focal point of the image is a majestic tiger motif, symbolizing power and strength. This unusual choice reflects the rich tradition and heritage deeply rooted in Central Asian culture. The vibrant colors and decorative mosaic work create an exotic atmosphere that transports viewers to another time. The ornate archway serves as a gateway to Islamic artistry at its finest. Every inch of this elaborate design tells a story, showcasing the contemporary ability to preserve ancient traditions with precision and dedication. As a popular tourist attraction, this photograph invites travelers from around the world to explore the beauty and complexity found within Samarkand's architectural wonders. It highlights how religion plays a dominant role in shaping both control and cultural identity in Uzbekistan. With its low angle view, every minute detail comes alive - from each individual tile to every carefully placed motif. The yellow hues add warmth to the color image while emphasizing its archaeological significance. Through Robert Harding's lens for WorldInPrint, we are reminded of photography's ability to capture not only physical objects but also intangible aspects such as spirituality and cultural heritage found throughout Asia.
