EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of history and discovery at the Excavation Site in Sterkfontein Caves, South Africa. As a UNESCO World Heritage Site nestled within the Cradle of Humankind at Maroping, this location holds immense significance. It was here that two groundbreaking archaeological finds took place - the remarkable Mrs. Ples and Little Foot. The image showcases an expansive view of the excavation site, with no people in sight to emphasize its untouched beauty. The built structures surrounding it add a sense of scale and human presence against the backdrop of nature's wonders. The railing leading towards the site guides our eyes towards what lies beneath – a treasure trove waiting to be explored. Towering trees frame the scene, reminding us that time has stood still for millennia as these ancient caves hold secrets from our past. Underneath a clear blue sky on a sunny day, this photograph perfectly encapsulates both adventure and serenity. Its high angle view gives us an aerial perspective, allowing us to appreciate not only the grandeur of this historical site but also its connection to Earth's natural landscape. Mark Harris skillfully captured this moment through his lens, showcasing his passion for archaeology and mining photography. This print is not just an artwork; it is a testament to humanity's unending quest for knowledge about our origins and heritage.
