EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the solemn beauty of gravestones from the Roman site of Timgad, now on display at a museum in Algeria. The ancient tombstones stand as silent witnesses to a bygone era, offering glimpses into the lives and deaths of those who once walked these lands. The image transports us back in time, inviting us to explore the rich history and archaeological wonders of North Africa. Each weathered stone tells its own unique story, etched with inscriptions that speak of love, loss, and remembrance. These grave markers are not just mere objects; they represent an entire civilization's reverence for their departed loved ones. The horizontal composition allows us to appreciate the intricate details carved into each tombstone against a backdrop of vibrant colors. The photographer's skillful use of light brings out the textures and patterns embedded within these ancient artifacts. As we gaze upon this photograph, we cannot help but feel a sense of awe and wonderment at how civilizations have come and gone throughout human history. It serves as a reminder that even in death, our legacy endures through artistry such as this. Ethel Davies/Robert Harding has masterfully captured both the physicality and emotional weight carried by these gravestones from Timgad. This image beckons us to embark on our own journey through time – one where we can unravel mysteries buried beneath layers of earth while paying homage to those who came before us.
