EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic Zimbabwe Ruins near Fort Victoria, Rhodesia, South Africa in the 1930s. The creator of this remarkable image remains unknown, but their talent for cinematography is evident. The construction of Great Zimbabwe, believed to be a royal palace, took place from the 11th to the 15th century. The photograph showcases the exterior of this archaeological wonder that stands as a testament to African history and architecture. The stone walls, built with mortar centuries ago, still stand tall against the backdrop of an African vista. Despite being abandoned for centuries, these ruins continue to exude grandeur and intrigue.
