EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the haunting beauty of the Chapel of Bones in the Royal Church of St Francis in Evora, Portugal. The intricate architecture and macabre decor of this 16th century chapel are truly mesmerizing.
The walls lined with human bones and skulls serve as a stark reminder of our mortality, while also reflecting on themes of faith, belief, and spirituality. The vibrant colors in the photograph bring a sense of life to this solemn place, creating a striking contrast between death and vitality.
As a UNESCO World Heritage Site, this architectural marvel stands as a testament to European history and religious devotion. The image transports viewers back in time to an era when art and religion were intricately intertwined.
The absence of people in the photo allows us to focus solely on the intricate details of the chapel's design, from its arches and columns to its eerie bone decorations. It is a powerful reminder that even in death, there is beauty to be found.
Pascal Deloche's skillful photography captures not only the physical aspects of this historic site but also its emotional depth. This print is sure to captivate anyone with an appreciation for art, history, or architecture.
