EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Hugh Rooney takes us on a journey back in time to the enchanting County Sligo in Ireland. Here, we are transported to the Carrowmore Megalithic site, where an ancient dolmen stands proudly against the backdrop of a serene blue sky. Dating back approximately 4000 BC, this architectural marvel is a testament to the rich history and burial customs of Ireland. The dolmen itself is a remarkable sight to behold - its massive stone slabs delicately balanced upon one another, creating an awe-inspiring structure that has withstood the test of time. As we gaze at this megalithic wonder, we can't help but imagine the rituals and ceremonies that took place here so many centuries ago. The significance of this site goes beyond mere architecture; it represents a connection between past and present, reminding us of our ancestors' ingenuity and reverence for their departed loved ones. The Carrowmore Megalithic site serves as a poignant reminder of Ireland's deep-rooted heritage and cultural identity. Rooney's skillful capture allows us to appreciate not only the historical importance but also the natural beauty surrounding this ancient monument. The vibrant blue sky acts as a perfect contrast against the weathered stones, enhancing their timeless allure. In preserving moments like these through photography, artists like Hugh Rooney enable us to witness glimpses into our shared human story – bridging gaps between generations and cultures alike.
