EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the haunting beauty of the Tetrapylon in Palmyra, Syria. Through a monumental stone doorway, framed by a massive stone wall, we are transported to the ancient ruins of this oasis city in the Syrian Desert. The image showcases the resilience and grandeur of Palmyra's architectural marvels. The Tetrapylon stands as a testament to Roman influence and engineering prowess with its towering columns and weathered stone material. Despite its ruined state, it exudes an aura of strength and history that is both awe-inspiring and melancholic. As we gaze upon this scene devoid of people, we can't help but feel a sense of loss for what once was. The demolished structures serve as reminders of past civilizations that thrived here before being abandoned to time's relentless march. Intriguingly captured during a dust storm, the photograph adds an ethereal quality to this ghost town. The swirling sandstorm seems to breathe life into these ancient stones while simultaneously eroding their existence. Palmyra's significance as an archaeological treasure cannot be overstated; it is recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This print invites us on a journey through time, allowing us to witness firsthand the rich cultural heritage that lies within these crumbling walls. Joe & Clair Carnegie have masterfully immortalized this moment in their photography series titled "Libyan Soup" reminding us all of our shared human history and the importance of preserving these invaluable remnants from ancient civilizations.
