EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by John Dakers showcases the partially reconstructed wall of the 6th century Basilica of St. John the Apostle in Selcuk, Izmir Province, Turkey. The image transports viewers to a place steeped in history and architectural grandeur. The foreground is adorned with scattered masonry pieces, serving as a reminder of the basilica's glorious past and its eventual decline into ruins. Despite its dilapidated state, the remnants exude an undeniable sense of majesty and strength. The Basilica of St. John stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of Christianity in this region. Its intricate architecture reflects both Asian and European influences, making it a truly unique representation of Eurasian culture. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back in time to witness the magnificence that once graced these sacred walls. The apostle himself walked within these hallowed grounds, leaving behind an indelible mark on religious history. John Dakers has masterfully captured not just a physical structure but also emotions evoked by this ancient ruin. Through his lens, he invites us to ponder our own existence amidst the passage of time and marvel at humanity's ability to create such awe-inspiring structures. This print serves as a window into another era - one filled with faith, devotion, and architectural brilliance that continues to captivate our imagination today.
