EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the awe-inspiring Bet Medhane Alem rock church, located in Lalibela, Ethiopia. The image captures the intricate details and grandeur of this ancient structure, which holds immense historical and religious significance. According to legend, King Lalibela received a divine order from God to construct a new Jerusalem in Ethiopia during the 11th and 12th centuries. It is believed that angels assisted him in building not only this church but also others like it. The photograph transports us back to April 23,2011, when Flora Bagenal skillfully captured the essence of Bet Medhane Alem. Its towering presence against the backdrop of clear blue skies evokes a sense of wonder and reverence. This image serves as a powerful reminder of Ethiopia's rich cultural heritage and its deep-rooted religious traditions. The architectural marvels found in Lalibela are testament to human ingenuity and devotion spanning centuries. As we gaze upon this remarkable scene frozen in time by Reuters Images, we can't help but be humbled by the dedication it took to create such an extraordinary place of worship. This picture invites us to reflect on our own spiritual beliefs while appreciating the artistry behind these sacred structures
