EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Overview of the former military port, 9th century BC" transports us back in time to the ancient city of Carthage in Tunisia. Taken by Carthaginian photographer Luisa Ricciarini, this image offers a glimpse into the rich history and civilization that once thrived on these shores. The photo captures an expansive view of the former military port at Carthage, which was founded by the Phoenicians in the 9th century BC. The remnants of this once bustling harbor are now an archaeological site, serving as a testament to the greatness of Carthaginian civilization. The composition highlights both the grandeur and decay present within this historical location. The crumbling walls and scattered ruins stand as silent witnesses to centuries gone by. It is through images like these that we can begin to imagine what life might have been like for those who inhabited this vibrant African city. Ricciarini's choice to capture this scene in black and white adds a timeless quality to the photograph. The absence of color allows us to focus on intricate details such as textures and patterns while emphasizing the enduring nature of these ancient structures. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we are reminded not only of Carthage's significance within North Africa but also its place in world history. This image serves as a powerful reminder that even after thousands of years, traces from our past continue to shape our present understanding.
