EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph transports us back in time to the ancient city of Paestum, Italy. The image showcases the magnificent temple of Hera II, also known as Neptune, which was built in 460 BC during the golden age of Greek architecture. The temple stands tall and proud against a clear sky, its grandeur evident even after centuries of wear and tear. Its massive columns reach for the heavens, creating an awe-inspiring sight that leaves viewers breathless. Each intricate detail on the facade tells a story of skilled craftsmanship and reverence for the gods. Luisa Ricciarini's photography perfectly captures the essence of this archaeological wonder. The play between light and shadow adds depth to every crevice and curve, emphasizing both strength and delicacy within this ancient structure. As we gaze upon this print, we can't help but imagine what life was like during those times - when worshippers would gather here to pay homage to their deities or seek solace amidst chaos. It serves as a reminder that art has always been a powerful means of connecting with our pasts; it allows us to step into history itself. Ricciarini's work reminds us that beauty transcends time; it is eternal. This photograph is not just an image frozen in time but a testament to human creativity and ingenuity throughout millennia.
