EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the rich history and ancient beauty of Libya's Tripolitania region. The image showcases an inscription on a stone, accompanied by the majestic Arch of Septimius Severus in Khums. The intricate carving on the stone tells tales of a bygone era, offering glimpses into the city's past. As one gazes at this remarkable artifact, it becomes evident that this land has witnessed countless chapters of human civilization unfold. Standing proudly beside the inscription is the iconic Arch of Septimius Severus, a testament to Rome's imperial might and influence over North Africa. This grand archway serves as a tangible link between two great civilizations - African and Roman. The historical significance of this site cannot be overstated; it represents not only Libya's cultural heritage but also its place within the broader tapestry of African history. Recognized by UNESCO for its outstanding universal value, this archaeological gem stands as a reminder of our shared human legacy. As we delve deeper into exploring these remnants from antiquity, we are transported back in time to an era when emperors ruled with authority and cities like Leptis Magna thrived under Roman dominion. In capturing this extraordinary moment through his lens, photographer KS invites us to appreciate both the artistry behind these ancient carvings and their enduring impact on Libyan culture today.
