EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the grandeur of the Academy of Sciences Building in Riga, Latvia. Standing tall and proud, this architectural masterpiece is a symbol of the city's rich cultural heritage. The building's striking facade, featuring elements of Stalinist architecture, commands attention and leaves a lasting impression on all who behold it. Known colloquially as "Stalin's Birthday Cake" this iconic structure has become a beloved landmark in Riga. Its imposing presence serves as a reminder of Latvia's complex history and its connection to Eastern Europe. The photographer, Neil Farrin, skillfully captures the essence of this magnificent cultural building. His keen eye for detail allows viewers to appreciate every intricate design element that adorns the exterior. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported to the heart of Riga - a vibrant capital city nestled in Northern Europe. The Academy of Sciences Building stands as a testament to human ingenuity and architectural brilliance. Kārlis Plūksne and Osvalds Tīlmanis were among the talented architects who contributed their expertise to bring this vision to life. Their collaboration resulted in an extraordinary structure that continues to captivate locals and tourists alike. Vaidelotis Apsītis' photograph offers us an opportunity to marvel at one of Europe's most remarkable landmarks while appreciating NF's exceptional talent behind capturing such breathtaking images.
