EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Sebastiaan Kroes takes us on a journey through time in the city of Lens, France. The image showcases a street that intertwines with the rich history and coal industry of this region. As our gaze wanders, we are transported to an era when coal mining dominated the landscape. In the background, a pile of rubble stands as a poignant reminder of the once-thriving coal mining era. It serves as a testament to human resilience and adaptation as Lens has transformed from an industrial powerhouse to part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site. The composition captures both architectural beauty and remnants of industry. The houses with their distinct roofs line the street, while an old car adds character to this historical tableau. Above, sunlight peeks through overcast skies, casting shadows that enhance the depth and atmosphere. Lens' past is intricately woven into its present identity; it is impossible not to be moved by this visual narrative. This photograph invites us to reflect on how industries shape cities and how they evolve over time. Sebastiaan Kroes skillfully captures this amalgamation of history, architecture, and industry in one frame. Whether you are drawn to travel destinations or fascinated by stories told through photography, this print offers a window into Lens' unique heritage that will captivate any viewer's imagination.
