EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of traditional folklore in Lithuania, Europe. The wood carvings at The Hill of Witches on the Dano River, located at the northern tip of the Curonian Spit in Klaipedia, showcase a rich cultural heritage. Each intricately carved wooden sculpture tells its own story, steeped in centuries-old tradition. The vibrant colors and grotesque yet intriguing faces depicted in these carvings add an element of mystique to this enchanting scene. One particular carving stands out with its tongue sticking out, adding a touch of whimsy amidst the otherwise serious expressions. As you gaze upon this vertical image, you can almost feel yourself transported to another time and place. It is as if these sculptures have come to life and are whispering tales from Lithuanian folklore into your ear. The absence of people in this photograph allows for uninterrupted contemplation and appreciation of these remarkable works of art. This tourist destination holds immense significance for those seeking an authentic glimpse into Lithuania's cultural identity. Michael Nolan/Robert Harding has skillfully captured not only the beauty but also the ugliness that lies within these wooden creations.
