EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the ancient carved stone heads of the gods, specifically the god Antiochus, found on the summit of Mount Nemrut in Anatolia, Turkey. As a UNESCO World Heritage Site, this remote and isolated hilltop location holds immense historical significance. The vibrant colors and intricate details of these stone carvings highlight their remarkable craftsmanship. The photograph captures both male and female likenesses, each representing a deity from an ancient civilization that once thrived in this region. However, time has taken its toll on these magnificent sculptures as they show signs of weakening and deterioration with cracks and crumbling rock. Despite their deteriorating state, these stone heads continue to attract tourists from around the world who are drawn to this unique tourist attraction. The seclusion provided by Mount Nemrut adds to its allure as visitors can immerse themselves in the rich history while enjoying breathtaking views of the Mediterranean landscape. Gavin Hellier/Robert Harding's photography perfectly encapsulates the essence of this mesmerizing site in Asia Minor. It serves as a reminder of our connection to ancient civilizations and invites us to explore further into Anatolia's archaeological wonders.
