EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Capitol of Dougga, a remarkable architectural marvel from the 2nd century. Located in the modern city of Thugga, Tunisia, this temple is an awe-inspiring dedication to three powerful Roman deities - Jupiter, Juno, and Minerva. Against a backdrop of clear blue skies, the building's exterior facade stands tall and proud as a testament to ancient religious beliefs. The vibrant colors captured in this image bring life to the concept of divinity and spirituality. As one gazes upon this World Heritage Site recognized by UNESCO, it becomes evident that every inch of detail was meticulously crafted to honor these gods and goddesses. Steeped in history and heritage, Dougga's Capitol holds immense significance for both locals and visitors alike. Its grandeur transports us back in time to an era when religion played a central role in society. Photographer CM Dixon skillfully captures not only the physical aspects but also manages to convey the spiritual essence emanating from within these sacred walls. The presence of other notable deities such as Hera adds further depth to our understanding of ancient belief systems. This print serves as a reminder that even centuries later, we can still appreciate and marvel at human achievements rooted in faith and devotion.
