EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Upper Colonnade Street in Palmyra, Syria. Situated amidst the vast Syrian desert, this ancient city flourished as a bustling caravan town along the historic Silk Road. The remnants of its glorious past are evident in the extensive ruins dating back to Roman times. The focal point of this image is the majestic colonnade that once formed the main east to west thoroughfare known as Decumanus. Stretching as far as the eye can see, it was adorned with approximately 1500 Corinthian columns, each standing tall and proud against time's relentless passage. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in history, we are transported back to an era when Palmyra thrived with life and commerce. The architectural marvels lining both sides of the street speak volumes about its grandeur and sophistication. The vibrant colors captured by Vivienne Sharp add depth and richness to this scene from antiquity. It serves as a poignant reminder of Syria's rich cultural heritage and architectural prowess. Let us cherish this remarkable archaeological site for what it represents – a testament to human ingenuity and resilience throughout centuries. May it stand strong against any adversity faced today or in years to come, preserving our connection with civilizations long gone but never forgotten.
