This print showcases a magnificent sight in downtown Damascus - a giant statue of Hafez al-Assad, the former ruler of Syria. For 34 years, Assad ruled with an iron fist until his passing in 2000 when he was succeeded by his son Bashar. This imposing monument stands as a testament to his powerful reign and enduring legacy. The statue itself is awe-inspiring, capturing the essence of Assad's authoritative presence. Its grandeur dominates the cityscape, symbolizing the immense influence he held over Syria during his time as president. As one gazes upon this remarkable memorial, it evokes mixed emotions - admiration for its artistic craftsmanship and reflection on the controversial regime it represents. Located in downtown Damascus, this colossal tribute serves as a reminder of both Assad's political prowess and the turbulent history that unfolded under his rule. It stands tall amidst bustling streets and busy crowds, commanding attention from all who pass by. Intriguingly captured by JL from Discover Images by AWL, this photograph encapsulates not only the physical stature of Hafez al-Assad but also offers viewers a glimpse into Syria's complex political landscape. It serves as a poignant reminder that even after his death, Assad continues to cast an indelible shadow over Syrian society and politics in the Middle East.
