EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Nick Brundle Photography, we are transported to the ancient city of Palmyra in Syria. The image showcases the ruins of a once-thriving Roman civilization, viewed from the main road. Despite being taken in 2015, it serves as a poignant reminder of the devastating crisis that has unfolded in this region. The photograph depicts a scene filled with history and travel destinations, where classical architecture meets the rugged beauty of nature. The remnants of old structures stand tall against the backdrop of an azure sky, their weathered stones telling tales of an ancient civilization long gone. Palmyra was recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site due to its exceptional cultural value before militant groups unleashed destruction upon it during the Syrian civil war. This image captures both its architectural splendor and tragic fate at once. As we gaze upon this color image, our eyes are drawn to an impressive arch and colonnade that symbolize Mediterranean culture at its zenith. It is impossible not to feel a sense of awe and reverence for what once stood here – evidence of human ingenuity and creativity spanning centuries. This photograph serves as a powerful testament to both our shared heritage and the fragility of historical sites amidst conflict. It reminds us that even amid darkness, art can shed light on forgotten stories and inspire us to protect these treasures for future generations.
