EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the timeless beauty of the Byzantine basilica on the picturesque island of Agios Achilios, nestled in Small Prespa Lake, Macedonia, Greece. The Saint Achilles church holds a rich history as it was founded around 986-990 by Tsar Samuel of Bulgaria. Legend has it that this sacred site served as a resting place for the revered relics of St. Achilleios. Italian photographer Andrea Ricordi skillfully frames this architectural marvel against a backdrop of serene waters and lush greenery. The image transports viewers to an ethereal realm where ancient spirituality meets natural tranquility. The intricate details and grandeur of the basilica's design are brought to life through Ricordi's lens, showcasing its ornate domes and graceful archways. Each stone seems to whisper tales from centuries past, inviting visitors to explore its hallowed halls. As sunlight dances upon the surface of Small Prespa Lake, casting gentle reflections onto the church's facade, one can't help but feel a sense of awe and reverence for both nature's splendor and human ingenuity. Ricordi's masterful composition invites us to contemplate our connection with history and spirituality while reminding us that even in remote corners of the world like Agios Achilios, profound beauty awaits those who seek it.
