EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Jane Sweeney transports us to the heart of Afghanistan's Ghazni, where ancient houses stand proudly within the protective walls of the Citadel. The rich history and architectural marvels of this region in the Middle East are beautifully captured in this image. The dominant yellow hues that adorn both the buildings and their surroundings create a warm and inviting atmosphere, despite being set against an urban backdrop. It is as if time has stood still within these ancient walls, preserving a sense of tranquility amidst bustling city life. As we gaze at this photograph, we cannot help but be reminded of the tumultuous past that Ghazni has endured. The Citadel was once destroyed during the First Anglo-Afghan War but has since been rebuilt and continues to serve as a military garrison. This juxtaposition between destruction and resilience adds depth to our appreciation for this remarkable place. Jane Sweeney's skillful composition allows us to appreciate not only the physical beauty of these structures but also their cultural significance. Through her lens, she captures more than just bricks and mortar; she captures centuries-old stories etched into every stone. This print serves as a powerful reminder that even amid conflict and change, there are places like Ghazni that hold steadfastly onto their heritage. It invites us to reflect on how architecture can shape our understanding of history while reminding us of humanity's ability to rebuild and preserve what truly matters.
