EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the haunting beauty of the Teatro di Palmyra, a Roman ruined theatre situated in the ancient city of Palmyra, Syria. Taken in 2008 by talented photographer Stefania Besca, this vertical composition showcases not only the architectural grandeur of this historical site but also serves as a poignant reminder of the conflict that has plagued Syria. The image exudes an air of melancholy and resilience as it reflects upon both the rich cultural heritage and devastating destruction caused by militant groups during the Syrian civil war. The amphitheater stands tall amidst its crumbling surroundings, symbolizing both strength and vulnerability. Designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, this archaeological wonder holds immense significance for Syrian culture and history. However, its preservation has been threatened due to acts of violence perpetrated by extremist factions such as ISIL. Besca's masterful photography skillfully captures every intricate detail with precision and sensitivity. The play between light and shadow adds depth to each weathered stone column while emphasizing the contrast between past glory and present turmoil. As we gaze at this powerful image, we are reminded not only of our shared human history but also our responsibility to protect these invaluable treasures from further harm. This photograph serves as a testament to both artistry and advocacy - encouraging us to appreciate cultural landmarks like Teatro di Palmyra while urging us towards collective action in safeguarding them for future generations.
