EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the ancient city of Palmyra in Syria. Standing tall against the backdrop of a majestic mountain and vast desert, we are drawn to the remarkable burial tower at Necropolis. This UNESCO World Heritage Site holds within its walls stories of an ancient civilization that thrived during the 1st and 2nd centuries A. D. The tower itself is a testament to the architectural brilliance of this bygone era. Its weathered exterior tells tales of history, while its grandeur commands our attention even today. As we gaze upon this monument, we can't help but feel a sense of awe for those who once walked these lands. The landscape surrounding the burial tower adds another layer of intrigue to this photograph. The extreme terrain serves as a reminder that civilizations rise and fall amidst nature's untamed beauty. It also reminds us that despite being nestled in such remote surroundings, Palmyra was once an important hub for trade and cultural exchange. As we delve into this image, it transports us beyond just physical geography; it immerses us in archaeology, history, and exploration. With no people present in the frame, our focus shifts solely towards unraveling the mysteries left behind by those who came before us. This print from DEA / C. SAPPA UIG captures not only a moment frozen in time but also invites contemplation about our place within humanity's vast tapestry across centuries past.
