Monumental Arch, Palmyra - A Glimpse of the Past Amidst Despair
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures the Monumental Arch in Palmyra, Syria, basking in the warm hues of a breathtaking sunset. Once a bustling UNESCO World Heritage Site that attracted over 150,000 tourists annually, this image serves as a poignant reminder of what once was. Before the Syrian conflict erupted in 2011, Palmyra stood as an architectural marvel and a testament to ancient civilizations. Its grandeur and historical significance drew visitors from all corners of the globe. However, today it stands as a symbol of crisis and deterioration. In this photograph by Nick Brundle Photography, we witness both tranquility and despair coexisting within one frame. The arch's colossal structure dominates the landscape while shadows cast by its ruins hint at the devastation caused by war. The vibrant colors of nature contrast with remnants of old ruins, showcasing how time has weathered these ancient Roman columns. Cloudscapes above reflect not only on past glory but also on present struggles faced by this region. As we gaze upon this image, our thoughts are drawn to those who have suffered due to militant groups like ISIL during Syria's civil war.
