EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Reunion Island's Piton Ste-Rose, showcasing the iconic Notre Dame des Laves church with its remarkable statue of the Virgin Mary, also known as La Vierge au Parasol. The image, taken by talented photographer Walter Bibikow, transports us to this enchanting French overseas territory nestled in the Indian Ocean. The Notre Dame des Laves church stands as a testament to faith and resilience amidst adversity. Built in 1861 on the site where a volcanic eruption spared it from destruction, it serves as a symbol of hope for locals and visitors alike. The striking statue of the Virgin Mary holding an umbrella adds an ethereal touch to this sacred place. Reunion Island itself is a paradise that blends African and French influences seamlessly. Its breathtaking landscapes boast lush forests, dramatic mountains like Piton de la Fournaise volcano, and pristine beaches that lure adventure seekers and nature lovers from around the world. Walter Bibikow's masterful use of photography enhances the timeless beauty captured in this image. It invites viewers to reflect upon both the historical significance of Notre Dame des Laves church and Reunion Island's natural wonders. Whether displayed at home or in public spaces, this print will undoubtedly spark curiosity about Reunion Island's rich cultural heritage while serving as a reminder of our shared human spirit in overcoming challenges.
