EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a serene moment in time amidst the rich history and natural beauty of Istanbul, Turkey. The photograph showcases an enchanting landscape where nature intertwines with human existence. Underneath a canopy of vibrant cypress trees, bathed in golden sunlight, stands a veiled lady paying her respects to the departed souls. Her presence adds an air of mystery and reverence to this sacred space. As she gazes towards the distant horizon, one can sense her contemplation about life's fleeting nature and the concept of mortality. The image transports us back to early 20th century Western Asia when this cemetery was considered a significant memorial site. It serves as a reminder that even in death, there is beauty and tranquility to be found among these hallowed grounds. Jules Guerin's artistic vision skillfully captures both the physicality of this location and its spiritual essence. Through his lens, we witness how light dances through branches and illuminates every corner of this resting place. The play between shadows and sunrays creates an ethereal atmosphere that evokes introspection. This print from "The Near East" by Robert Hitchens encapsulates not only a specific moment but also represents timeless themes such as life's impermanence and our connection with nature. It invites viewers to reflect upon their own existence while appreciating the delicate balance between life and death within this Middle Eastern setting.
