EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pilgrim in deep contemplation at the awe-inspiring rock-hewn monolithic church of Bet Giyorgis (St. George's) in Lalibela, Ethiopia. As a UNESCO World Heritage Site, this ancient place of worship holds immense cultural and historical significance. The image showcases the remarkable architecture of the church, carved entirely out of solid rock. Its vertical structure stands tall against the backdrop of Ethiopia's stunning landscape, inviting visitors to marvel at its grandeur. In this particular shot, we see a lone figure sitting outside the church, gazing towards an unseen view with reverence and devotion. The person's back is turned towards us, symbolizing their complete immersion in prayer or reflection. Ethiopia has long been known for its strong Christian heritage, and this photograph beautifully encapsulates that spiritual essence. The vibrant colors add depth to the scene while highlighting both the natural beauty and man-made wonders present within Lalibela. Jane Sweeney/Robert Harding skillfully captures not only an architectural masterpiece but also evokes a sense of tranquility and serenity through her lens. This print serves as a visual reminder that travel can be transformative when one encounters places imbued with rich history and profound spirituality like Bet Giyorgis Church in Lalibela.
