EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the ethereal beauty of Matera, a UNESCO World Heritage Site located in Southern Italy. The city center of Matera and its iconic Sassi di Matera are showcased against a backdrop of beautiful clouds in the sky. Matera holds a significant place in history as it is considered the third oldest city in the world, with continuous habitation from the stone age to present times. Its ancient roots can be traced back even further than renowned cities like Jericho and Aleppo. The photograph highlights the unique landscape of Matera, characterized by sedimentary rock formations and limestone cliffs that create a ravine-like setting for its buildings. The houses seem to blend seamlessly into their surroundings, giving an impression of harmony between nature and human architecture. As you gaze at this image, you can almost feel yourself transported back in time to an era long gone. It evokes a sense of mystery and intrigue, as if whispering tales from centuries past. Matera's designation as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1993 speaks volumes about its historical significance and architectural splendor. This print serves as both a reminder of our rich ancient history and an invitation to explore this destination firsthand. Federica Grassi's masterful photography skillfully captures every detail, allowing us to appreciate not only the grandeur of Matera but also its delicate nuances - from abandoned caves to old ruins - all bathed in gentle sunlight filtering through clear summer skies.
