EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of history and spirituality in Biertan, a picturesque village nestled in the heart of Transylvania, Romania. The image showcases a collection of memorial floor stones dating back to the 15th century, serving as a poignant reminder of the region's rich Christian heritage. Biertan is renowned for its fortified church, which stands as an architectural marvel and symbolizes both strength and faith. This defensive church not only provided protection against external threats but also served as a place of worship for generations. The headstones embedded within its hallowed grounds pay tribute to those who have found eternal rest here. Photographer Doug Pearson expertly frames this scene, capturing the solemn beauty that permeates through these weathered stones. Each stone tells a story - stories of lives lived, memories cherished, and legacies left behind. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported to another time and place; we can almost feel the weight of history beneath our feet. It serves as a testament to Eastern European culture and reminds us that even in old age, there is still profound beauty to be found. For travelers seeking unique destinations off the beaten path, Biertan offers an enchanting experience like no other. Its tranquil charm combined with its historical significance makes it an ideal spot for those yearning to explore Europe's hidden gems.
