EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant print captures the awe-inspiring Roman theatre at Dougga, a remarkable archaeological site in northern Tunisia. Known as Thugga in ancient times, this well-preserved Roman city has earned its place on UNESCO's prestigious World Heritage list for being the best-preserved small town of its kind in North Africa. Unlike other historical sites that have fallen victim to modern urbanization, Dougga remains untouched and nestled amidst picturesque countryside. Its size, rich history spanning from Numidian-Berber to Punic, ancient Roman, and Byzantine eras, along with its impeccably preserved monuments make it truly exceptional. The photograph showcases the theater against a backdrop of colorful fields and an expansive plain. The vivid hues bring out the architectural beauty of this ancient structure - from the majestic columns to the intricate details etched into its construction. Stepping into this image feels like stepping back in time; it is a testament to human ingenuity and cultural heritage. As you gaze upon this scene, you can almost hear echoes of applause reverberating through the air as audiences once gathered here for theatrical performances centuries ago. Kelly Cheng's skillful photography allows us to appreciate not only the grandeur of Dougga but also highlights how important it is to preserve our past for future generations. This stunning piece serves as a reminder of our shared history and invites us to explore these extraordinary remnants of antiquity that continue to captivate travelers from around the world.
