EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the mystique of an ancient relic from the Neolithic era. Titled "The Monk" it showcases a towering menhir, a monumental stone structure dating back to 6000-3000 BC. Located in Apulia, Italy, this awe-inspiring megalith stands at an impressive height of 370 cm. The image transports us back in time, allowing us to marvel at the craftsmanship and significance of this prehistoric artifact. The monolithic figure exudes an air of solemnity and wisdom, earning its nickname as "The Monk". Its weathered surface tells tales of centuries gone by, evoking curiosity about the rituals and beliefs that surrounded it during its prime. Photographer Luisa Ricciarini skillfully captures every intricate detail with her lens, emphasizing the textures and contours etched into the stone's surface. The choice to present this photograph in black and white adds a timeless quality to the image while enhancing its dramatic impact. "The Monk" serves as a powerful reminder of our connection to our ancestors and their rich cultural heritage. It invites contemplation on humanity's enduring search for meaning throughout history. This remarkable print is not only a testament to Prehistory but also a work of art that transcends time itself.
