EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Philippe Lissac, we are transported to the enchanting town of Lalibela in Ethiopia. Standing outside the magnificent Bet Medhane Alem church, a devoted man immerses himself in deep spiritual contemplation. The image beautifully encapsulates the essence of African spirituality and faith. As rays of sunlight gently illuminate his face, one can sense the profound connection he shares with his religious beliefs. His eyes closed in reverence, hands clasped together in prayer, he embodies the devotion and dedication that lies at the core of Christianity. Lalibela is renowned for its ancient rock-hewn churches which have become significant pilgrimage sites for Coptic Christians. This particular church, Bet Medhane Alem, holds special significance as it is believed to be one of the largest monolithic churches in the world. The photograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to Africa's rich religious heritage and cultural diversity. It reminds us that spirituality knows no boundaries or limitations; it transcends continents and unites people from all walks of life. Through this powerful image, we are reminded of our shared humanity and our universal quest for meaning and purpose. It invites us to reflect on our own spiritual journeys while offering a glimpse into an individual's unwavering commitment to their faith amidst breathtaking natural surroundings.
