EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing Lighthouse of the Bout du Monde, standing proudly opposite the picturesque tip and beach of Minimes in La Rochelle. With its unique location on concrete piles, this octagonal wooden lighthouse emanates a powerful beam of light that stretches an impressive 27 kilometers into the distance. Inaugurated in January 2000, this remarkable structure is actually a replica of its namesake lighthouse that was originally constructed in the nineteenth century near Cape Horn, on the island of States in Patagonia. The original lighthouse gained fame through Jules Verne's renowned novel, which immortalized its significance. Photographer Julien Fourniol has masterfully captured the essence and beauty of this architectural wonder with his lens. The image transports viewers to a world where land meets sea and history intertwines with nature's grandeur. The composition highlights every intricate detail of this wooden masterpiece against a backdrop of serene blue skies and shimmering waters.
