EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the magnificent Metropolitan Cathedral at night, standing proudly in Independence Square, Quito. As a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a symbol of Ecuador's rich cultural heritage, this architectural marvel is located in the Pichincha Province of South America. The image showcases the cathedral's stunning dome illuminated against the night sky, highlighting its intricate Gothic and Baroque features that date back to the 16th century. The vibrant colors and bright lights create a mesmerizing contrast with the overcast backdrop, adding an ethereal touch to this historical landmark. The absence of people allows for an uninterrupted view of this grand structure, emphasizing its significance as a place of worship for Roman Catholicism in Quito. Through this photograph, photographers Gabrielle & Michel Therin-Weise/Robert Hardin beautifully capture not only the physical beauty of the cathedral but also its spiritual essence. It serves as a reminder of Quito's past and traditional culture while showcasing Latin American architecture at its finest. This image is not just another travel destination snapshot; it encapsulates history, religion, and artistry all within one frame. Its inclusion in WorldInPrint's collection further solidifies its status as a national landmark worth preserving for generations to come.
