EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the enchanting ruins of Aluwihari, one of the many ruined cities that dot the landscape of Ceylon (now Sri Lanka). The image, taken by Henry W. Cave in 1896, captures the essence of a forgotten era. The photograph showcases the remnants of an ancient city engulfed by lush jungle vegetation. The crumbling structures stand as silent witnesses to centuries gone by, their weathered walls telling tales of grandeur and decay. As we gaze upon this haunting scene, we are reminded of the passage of time and how even great civilizations can succumb to nature's relentless embrace. Cave's expertly composed gravure print allows us to appreciate both the architectural details and natural beauty surrounding these ruins. Every line etched into stone speaks volumes about a once-thriving civilization that has now become part of history's tapestry. Through this evocative image, we are transported on a journey through time - back to a period when Aluwihari was teeming with life and bustling with activity. It serves as a poignant reminder that all things eventually fade away but leave behind echoes for future generations to ponder upon. This rare glimpse into Ceylon's past is not only a testament to Cave's skill as a photographer but also an invitation for us to explore our own fascination with lost worlds and forgotten stories.
