EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us on a journey back in time to the ancient city of Cyrene, located in modern-day Libya. The image captures a moment within the Gymnasium wall, an archaeological site that holds great historical significance and is recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1982. The scene depicts a full-length view of the gymnasium wall, showcasing its grandeur and architectural beauty. As we observe from behind, we see individuals walking along the wall, their figures adding life to this idyllic setting. The vibrant colors bring out the intricate details of this Greek-inspired structure, transporting us to an era long gone. The photograph perfectly encapsulates the essence of archaeology and Greek culture intertwined with Libyan history. It serves as a reminder of how civilizations have evolved over centuries and leaves us in awe of their achievements. With its horizontal composition under bright daylight, it highlights not only the building exterior but also showcases the old ruins surrounding it. This juxtaposition between ancient Greece and contemporary Libya creates a fascinating contrast that sparks curiosity about our shared human heritage. As we admire this remarkable image captured by DEA / C. SAPPA UIG from Universal Images Group (UIG), let's appreciate both its artistic value and its role in preserving history for generations to come.
