EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Buddha of Bamiyan, known as Sasaal, emanating a divine light that permeates the universe. Standing tall at an impressive height of 53-58 meters, this ancient masterpiece was constructed in 554 AD. Located in the enchanting Bamiyan valley of Afghanistan, it was once part of a collection of Buddhist relics that adorned this sacred site. Tragically, the Taliban regime brought devastation upon these cultural treasures in 2001, including Shamama - another significant Buddha statue in the valley. Despite this heart-wrenching loss, the resilience and historical significance of Bamiyan compelled UNESCO to declare it a World Heritage Site in 2003. In this vibrant and horizontal color image captured by Alireza Firouzi, we are transported to Bamiyan province. The photograph not only captures the physical beauty and intricate details of Sasaal but also serves as a poignant reminder of our shared human history and cultural diversity. Whether you are an admirer of Buddhism or simply appreciate breathtaking travel destinations with rich historical backgrounds, this print is sure to captivate your senses. Display it proudly on your walls as a testament to mankind's ability to create awe-inspiring art while honoring those lost relics that continue to inspire us today.
