EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remains of a Hypocaust, an ancient Roman heating system, located in Tipasa, Algeria. The image captures the intricate architecture of this thermal bath complex, which was once part of a bustling Roman military colony founded by the Phoenicians. The ruins stand as a testament to the rich history and cultural exchange that took place in this North African region. Tipasa flourished under Roman rule during the reign of Emperor Claudius and became an important center for Christianity with its own Bishop see in the third century. Photographer Gerard Degeorge skillfully captures the beauty and grandeur of these archaeological sites. His lens reveals not only the physical decay but also evokes a sense of awe at how time has transformed these structures into hauntingly beautiful remnants. The fine details captured in this photograph allow viewers to appreciate both the craftsmanship involved in constructing such elaborate baths and their historical significance. It serves as a reminder that even amidst ruin, there is still beauty to be found. This print is a remarkable piece that transports us back in time, inviting us to explore and reflect on our shared human heritage. It stands as a tribute to Algerian history while showcasing Degeorge's talent for capturing architectural wonders through his lens.
