EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the breathtaking beauty of Matera, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Basilicata, Italy. As the sun rises over the canyon and Sassi di Matera old town, its golden rays illuminate the campanile of the church of Saint Peter Barisano, creating a mesmerizing sight. The ancient town of Matera is known for its unique cave dwellings carved into the rock formations, which have been inhabited since prehistoric times. The Sassi di Matera old town is a labyrinthine network of narrow streets and alleys that wind through these ancient caves, giving it an otherworldly charm. In this photograph by Stuart Black, we witness nature's artistry blending seamlessly with human architecture. The clear sky provides a perfect backdrop for this picturesque scene as it transitions from night to day or perhaps from dusk to sunset. As we gaze at this image devoid of people or any signs of modern life, we are transported back in time to an era when spirituality played a central role in daily existence. The church's campanile stands tall as a symbol of faith and devotion amidst this ethereal landscape. Whether you are an avid traveler or simply appreciate captivating imagery, this print serves as a reminder that there are still hidden gems waiting to be discovered across our beautiful planet.
