EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic Temple of Athena (Temple of Ceres) in Paestum, Italy. As a UNESCO World Heritage Site, these Greek ruins stand as a testament to the ancient civilization that once thrived here. The image showcases the temple's impressive architecture and its significance in Greek culture. The vibrant colors bring this historical site to life, highlighting the beauty of its stone structures against a clear blue sky. The horizontal composition allows for an expansive view of the temple, emphasizing its grandeur and scale. Standing outside on a sunny day, there is an undeniable sense of tranquility and serenity surrounding this travel destination. With no one in sight, it feels like stepping back in time to explore this religious sanctuary at your own pace. The photograph also captures elements such as trees and walls that have weathered over time, adding to the charm and authenticity of these old ruins. The columns with their iconic ionic design are particularly striking features that showcase the architectural prowess of ancient Greece. Dating back to the 5th century BC during the classic period, this temple holds immense historical value and serves as a window into our past. It is a reminder of how civilizations rise and fall but leave behind remnants that continue to inspire awe and wonder today. Eleanor Scriven has masterfully captured both the physical beauty and cultural significance of this archaeological site through her lens.
