EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Gabriel and Raphael, Bieta Mercurios, Lalibela, Wollo, Ethiopia, Africa" takes us on a visual journey to the heart of Ethiopian Christianity. The image showcases the stunning architecture of one of Lalibela's rock-hewn churches, specifically Bieta Mercurios. Nestled in the rugged landscapes of Wollo, this sacred place of worship stands as a testament to human ingenuity and devotion. Carved entirely out of solid rock centuries ago by skilled artisans, these churches are not only architectural marvels but also hold immense religious significance for Ethiopian Christians. In this vertical color image captured by J P De Mann/Robert Harding, we witness Gabriel and Raphael - two prominent figures from Christian mythology - adorning the exterior walls of Bieta Mercurios. Their intricate carvings speak volumes about the rich cultural heritage that thrives in Ethiopia. As we gaze upon this photograph, our senses are awakened by the vibrant colors and textures that surround Gabriel and Raphael. The warm sunlight illuminates every detail with an ethereal glow while emphasizing their importance within this spiritual sanctuary. For those seeking travel destinations off the beaten path or yearning to explore diverse religious traditions around the world, Lalibela is an enchanting choice. This print serves as a window into its mystical allure – inviting us to immerse ourselves in its ancient history and awe-inspiring beauty.
