EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the vibrant spirit of Christian pilgrims during the Easter festival at Sainte Marie de Sion in Axum, Ethiopia. The image showcases a group of devout men immersed in their religious journey, standing outside the magnificent landmark church. The event radiates an aura of festivity and spirituality as believers from all walks of life come together to celebrate this significant occasion. The Ethiopian Orthodox Church holds deep roots in this region, making it a popular pilgrimage site for Christians seeking spiritual enlightenment. The architectural beauty of the church is evident in its intricate design and grandeur, serving as a testament to centuries-old traditions and faith. As one gazes upon this scene, they are transported to Eastern Africa's cultural heartland where religion plays an integral role in people's lives. Ethiopia's rich religious heritage is palpable through every step taken on this sacred land. This photograph encapsulates not only a moment frozen in time but also represents the unity that exists among believers who have traveled far and wide to pay homage to their faith. Bruno Barbier/Robert Harding has masterfully captured the essence of this extraordinary gathering, allowing viewers to witness firsthand the devotion and reverence shared by these African pilgrims. It serves as a reminder that no matter our backgrounds or beliefs, we can find solace and inspiration within places of worship like Sainte Marie de Sion.
