This print transports us to the ancient city of Aleppo in Syria, where the magnificent 8th BC Century Hittite temple of Ain Dara stands as a testament to a bygone era. The focal point of this image is an intricately carved lion, its majestic presence evoking both awe and reverence. As we gaze upon this remarkable stone carving, we are reminded of the rich history that permeates every corner of the Middle East. This archaeological site holds immense significance as a place of worship for countless generations who sought solace and connection with their divine beliefs. The ruins surrounding the lion carving serve as poignant reminders of time's passage and the impermanence of human creations. Yet, they also inspire wonder at our ancestors' architectural prowess and their ability to create enduring structures amidst challenging circumstances. In this snapshot from photographer Michele Falzone's lens, we catch a glimpse into Syria's past glory along the Silk Road – an ancient trade route that connected civilizations across continents. It serves as a reminder that even in times marred by conflict and turmoil, cultural heritage endures. Whether you're an avid traveler or simply appreciate historical marvels from afar, this print invites you on a visual journey through time. Let it transport you to distant lands where religion intertwined with artistry and architecture shaped communities for centuries gone by.
