EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic town of Izmir, Turkey, encroaching on the hillside site of the martyrdom and burial place of St. Polycarp. The image showcases Mount Pagos, also known as Kadifekale, looming in the background as a testament to centuries of history and religious significance.
St. Polycarp, a revered saint in Christian tradition, met his tragic fate on this very hillside in 1909 during the Ottoman Empire era. His tomb remains a sacred spot for pilgrims and historians alike, symbolizing resilience and faith amidst turbulent times.
The juxtaposition of modern urban development against this ancient historical site is striking - a reminder of how time marches on while echoes of the past linger in every corner. The rich tapestry of Izmir's past is woven into every stone and building that dots the landscape around Kadifekale.
As you gaze upon this photo print, let yourself be transported back in time to an era when empires rose and fell, martyrs were made legends, and cities like Izmir (Smyrna) stood as witnesses to it all. Let the beauty and complexity of history wash over you as you contemplate the stories etched into Mount Pagos by those who came before us.
