EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the traditional wooden crossroad crosses of Romania, found in the ASTRA Museum of Traditional Folk Civilization. Located outside Sibiu, Transylvania, this open-air museum offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of rural Romania. The image captures rows of intricately designed crosses against the backdrop of the stunning Carpathian Mountains. These crosses hold deep religious significance and serve as symbols of faith and devotion for the Romanian people. Each cross represents a unique blend of traditional architecture and symbolism that has been passed down through generations. The photographer, Mauricio Abreu, skillfully captures the essence of these crosses without any human presence in sight. This absence allows viewers to focus solely on the beauty and craftsmanship displayed in each cross's design. As one explores this photograph further, they are transported to a simpler time when traditions were cherished and villages thrived with their strong sense of community. It serves as a reminder that even in today's modern world, there is still value in preserving our cultural roots. Whether you have an affinity for Eastern European culture or simply appreciate fine art photography, this print is sure to captivate your imagination and transport you to the enchanting landscapes of rural Romania.
