EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the ruins of Inca monuments in the environs of Tiahuanacu, South of Lake Titicaca, Bolivia, in 1877. The image showcases the remnants of an ancient city that thrived between 500 and 950 AD. However, by the time the conquering Incas arrived in the mid-fifteenth century, this once bustling site had been mysteriously abandoned for over five centuries. The photograph captures a landscape filled with stone ruins that bear witness to a rich history and architectural prowess. These archaeological remains stand as a testament to the ingenuity and craftsmanship of the Peruvian Incas who once inhabited this area. The monochrome aesthetic adds an air of mystery and timelessness to these ancient structures. Located near La Paz, Bolivia, this archaeological site holds immense significance not only for its historical value but also for its cultural importance. It serves as a window into a civilization long gone but still leaving traces behind. As we gaze upon this engraving from the nineteenth century, we are transported back in time to explore an ancient city frozen in ruins. This print allows us to appreciate both the beauty and grandeur that once graced these now dilapidated structures while pondering on their enigmatic abandonment centuries ago.
