EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the awe-inspiring moment of a man entering the magnificent Bet Medhane Alem church in Lalibela, Wollo, Ethiopia. As he steps through the intricately designed doorway, one can't help but be drawn into this sacred space that exudes an air of tranquility and spirituality. The image showcases the vibrant colors and rich architectural details that make this Ethiopian church truly remarkable. The warm hues of red and gold adorn every corner, while intricate carvings and patterns adorn the walls. It is evident that great care has been taken to create a place of worship that reflects both beauty and devotion. The lone figure in this photograph adds a sense of scale to the grandeur of the surroundings. With his head slightly bowed, it is clear that he approaches this holy site with reverence and humility. His presence reminds us of the significance religion holds for many people around the world. Lalibela itself is renowned for its rock-hewn churches, which are considered UNESCO World Heritage sites. This particular church, Bet Medhane Alem, stands as one of Lalibela's most iconic landmarks—a testament to Ethiopia's deep-rooted Christian heritage. Through this stunning image captured by Godong/Robert Harding, we are transported to a land where faith intertwines with breathtaking architecture—an invitation to explore not only Ethiopia's cultural treasures but also our own spiritual connections within these sacred spaces.
