EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic ruins of the Asklepion in Bergama, formerly known as Pergamon. The Asklepion, an ancient medical complex and hospital dedicated to Aesculapius, the god of Health and Medicine, is believed to have stood since the 4th century BC. In 2014, this historical site was rightfully added to UNESCO's prestigious world heritage list. The image showcases a mesmerizing blend of history and architecture against the backdrop of Asia's enchanting past. Located in Izmir, Anatolia, these ruins stand as a testament to Turkey's rich cultural heritage in the Middle East. The absence of people allows us to fully appreciate the grandeur and serenity that emanates from this built structure. The architectural features are awe-inspiring; classical Greek influences can be observed through its magnificent columns and temple buildings made from exquisite marble. As we gaze upon this photograph, it transports us back in time to an era when ancient civilizations thrived. The surrounding trees add a touch of natural beauty amidst these remnants of human ingenuity. This picture serves as a reminder not only of our collective history but also invites us on a journey through archaeology and exploration. Frans Sellies' photography skillfully captures every intricate detail with precision. It is no wonder why this UNESCO World Heritage Site continues to attract tourists seeking both knowledge and adventure while immersing themselves in its timeless allure.
