EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we see an old man immersed in his spiritual journey. Dressed in a traditional gabi, a flowing white shawl, he sits peacefully under the warm rays of the sun. With utmost devotion, he engrosses himself in the pages of the holy bible, finding solace and guidance within its sacred words. This serene scene unfolds at the monolithic church of Bet Medhane Alem, known as the Saviour of the World. Standing tall and majestic with 73 pillars supporting its grandeur, it is hailed as the largest rock-hewn church globally. Located in Lalibela, Ethiopia's World Heritage Site renowned for its architectural wonders and rich Christian history. The image captures not only religious devotion but also showcases Africa's vibrant cultural heritage. The man's presence against this ancient backdrop symbolizes continuity between past and present generations who have sought spirituality within these hallowed walls. Photographed by Jane Sweeney/Robert Harding with impeccable skill and artistry, every detail comes to life - from the intricate carvings on stone to the subtle play of light on weathered features. This vertical composition invites viewers to embark on their own visual pilgrimage through time and space. Without mentioning any commercial use or affiliations beyond photography itself, this evocative caption transports us to a world where faith intertwines with architecture; where tradition meets contemporary existence; where one man finds enlightenment amidst Ethiopia's awe-inspiring landscapes.
