EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in the heart of Montrouge, France, this stunning photograph by Godong/Robert Harding captures a young girl lighting Hannuka candles with reverence and joy. The warm glow of the flames illuminates her face, highlighting her concentration and devotion to this ancient Jewish tradition. As part of the eight-day festival of Hannuka, which commemorates the rededication of the Temple in Jerusalem during the Maccabean Revolt, lighting candles is a significant ritual that symbolizes hope and freedom. In this intimate moment, we see a glimpse into French-Jewish culture and tradition as it unfolds in everyday life. The photographer's use of natural light adds depth and warmth to the scene, while the close-up shot allows us to focus on the girl's emotions and connection to this sacred act. The silver menorah stands out against a neutral background, its intricate details subtly visible beneath her small hands. This image not only showcases Robert Harding's exceptional photography skills but also invites us to step into a world where faith and community come together in celebration. As we gaze upon this serene portrait, we are reminded of the power of cultural heritage and tradition to bring people together across borders.
