EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Greek theatre at Ephesus, a remarkable testament to ancient civilization. Originally constructed during Hellenistic times, this architectural marvel was further expanded in the first century AD. Its grandeur and historical significance are truly awe-inspiring. The theatre holds immense cultural importance as it served as a platform for St Paul, one of Christianity's most influential figures, who preached here during the 1st century BC. Standing within these ruins transports us back in time, allowing us to imagine the profound impact of his words on those who gathered in this very spot. The vibrant colors captured in this image bring life to the weathered stones that bear witness to centuries gone by. The intricate details and craftsmanship evident even today speak volumes about the skill and ingenuity of ancient Greek architects. Located in modern-day Turkey, Ephesus is steeped in history and mythology. This archaeological treasure trove draws visitors from around the world who come to marvel at its well-preserved ruins. As we gaze upon this artifact frozen in time, we cannot help but feel a deep sense of reverence for our ancestors' achievements and their enduring legacy. This photograph by CM Dixon beautifully encapsulates not only the physical remnants of an extraordinary amphitheater but also evokes a sense of wonderment at humanity's ability to create lasting masterpieces that transcend time itself.
