EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the House of Blackheads and St Peters Church, two architectural gems nestled in the heart of Riga, Latvia. The House of Blackheads stands as a testament to the city's rich history, having been rebuilt in 2001 to commemorate Riga's 800th anniversary. Originally dating back to 1344, this magnificent structure unfortunately fell victim to destruction during World War II in 1941. Once rented by the esteemed guild known as the Blackheads, a group of foreign merchants from the 15th century, they eventually purchased the building in 1713. Its striking facade features intricate heraldry and coats of arms that speak volumes about its medieval origins. Adjacent to this historic masterpiece is St Peters Church, an exquisite example of Gothic architecture that has earned its place among the finest churches in all of Baltic states. With its towering spire reaching towards the heavens and awe-inspiring interior design, it serves as a beacon for Christianity within Latvia. Photographer Peter Thompson expertly captures both structures' grandeur while highlighting their unique characteristics through his lens. This print not only immortalizes these iconic landmarks but also transports viewers back in time to experience their beauty firsthand. Whether you appreciate historical buildings or have an affinity for religious sites, this remarkable image offers a glimpse into Riga's past and invites contemplation on centuries-old craftsmanship and devotion.
