This print by Peter Barritt showcases the mesmerizing beauty of Kuttam Pokuna, also known as the Twin Ponds. Located in Anuradhapura, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Sri Lanka's North Central Province, this ancient landmark is an archaeological marvel that reflects the rich history and cultural heritage of the region. The image captures the serene atmosphere surrounding these historic pools, with lush greenery and towering trees providing a picturesque backdrop. The crystal-clear waters of the ponds glisten under the warm sunlight, inviting visitors to immerse themselves in its tranquility. Kuttam Pokuna holds great significance for Buddhists as it was once used for ritualistic purposes. Its architectural brilliance is evident through intricate stone carvings and symmetrical design elements that have stood the test of time. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back to a bygone era where spirituality and nature intertwined harmoniously. It serves as a reminder of our connection to the past and encourages us to appreciate and preserve these invaluable remnants of human history. Peter Barritt's skillful photography not only captures Kuttam Pokuna's physical attributes but also evokes emotions within us – awe at its grandeur, reverence for its cultural importance, and gratitude for being able to witness such magnificence firsthand.
