EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Philippe Lissac, we witness a powerful display of faith and devotion outside the Bet Gabriel-Rufa el church in Lalibela, Ethiopia. The image portrays an African man engrossed in deep contemplation as he reads from the sacred pages of his Bible. His unwavering commitment to spirituality is evident through his serene expression and focused demeanor. The setting itself exudes a sense of tranquility, with the ancient stone walls of the church providing a backdrop steeped in history and reverence. Lalibela, known for its rich religious heritage, holds immense significance for pilgrims seeking solace and connection to their spiritual roots. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are reminded of the universal power that religion holds in people's lives across different cultures. The man's presence amidst nature highlights the harmonious relationship between humanity and creation. This image serves as a reminder that faith knows no boundaries or limitations; it transcends time and geographical borders. It encapsulates both personal introspection and communal worship within one frame. Philippe Lissac has masterfully captured not just an individual reading his Bible but also a testament to the enduring strength of Christianity in Africa. Through this photograph, we are invited to reflect on our own beliefs while appreciating the profound impact religion has on individuals around the world.
