EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the magnificent Roman Baths in Bath, England. Steeped in history and architectural brilliance, this site of historical interest is a testament to the ingenuity of the ancient Romans. Dating back to 60-70 AD, the temple and bathing complex were gradually built over the course of 300 years. The Roman Baths are supplied by natural hot springs that bubble up from underground sources and rainwater collected from nearby Mendip Hills. To ensure stability, engineers drove oak piles into the mud and surrounded the spring with an irregular stone chamber lined with lead.

This vertical shot emphasizes both its monumental presence and its integration with nature.
