EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Africa's rich history and natural beauty in Cape Verde, specifically on the island of Santiago. The focal point is the magnificent fortress of Cidade Velha, standing proudly against the backdrop of the Atlantic Ocean. Its ancient walls tell stories of a bygone era when this strategic location played a crucial role in protecting these islands. As you gaze at this image, you can almost feel the ocean breeze brushing against your skin as you walk along an old path that leads to this historic town. The road seems to whisper tales from centuries past, inviting you to explore its hidden corners and immerse yourself in its cultural heritage. Cidade Velha holds UNESCO World Heritage status, serving as a testament to its significance not only for Cape Verde but also for African history as a whole. It was once frequented by renowned figures like Francis Drake during his voyages across the vast Atlantic. This print transports you to a place where time stands still – where ancient meets modernity amidst breathtaking scenery. Whether displayed in your home or office, it serves as a reminder of Africa's enduring allure and invites dreams of future travels to discover more about this remarkable continent.
