EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the ancient civilization of Tiwanaku, located in Bolivia's Ingavi Province. The detailed frieze on the Gateway of Sun is a remarkable sight, showcasing the intricate art and craftmanship of this bygone era. Dating back to the 2nd century, this UNESCO World Heritage Site holds immense historical significance. As we gaze upon this vertical image, we can't help but be filled with awe and wonder at the rich history that unfolded within these walls. The gateway's frieze depicts gods and symbols that were revered by the people of Tiwanaku, offering us a glimpse into their beliefs and way of life. The absence of people in this photograph allows us to fully immerse ourselves in the atmosphere of antiquity. We are transported to a time when Mesoamerican civilizations thrived, leaving behind legacies that continue to captivate archaeologists and historians today. Surrounded by nature's beauty in La Paz Department, this outdoor marvel stands as a testament to human ingenuity and cultural heritage. It serves as a reminder that even though centuries have passed since its creation, Tiwanaku remains an extraordinary place of interest for travelers from around the world. Through this print captured by DEA / G. DAGLI ORTI UIG from Universal Images Group (UIG), we are reminded not only of our past but also how important it is to preserve these invaluable treasures for future generations.
