EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the awe-inspiring Ad Deir Monastery at Petra, captured by the talented artist CM Dixon in the 20th century. The monumental structure, also known as El Deir, stands as a testament to the architectural genius of the Nabataeans who carved it out of rock in the ancient Jordanian city of Petra during the 1st century. The image portrays this magnificent religious edifice set against a backdrop of rugged natural beauty. Bathed in warm daylight, its color and texture are beautifully accentuated. The exterior facade exudes an air of grandeur and mystery, inviting viewers to contemplate its rich history and significance. Located within an archaeological site designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Ad Deir Monastery is not only a symbol of cultural heritage but also serves as a reminder of human ingenuity throughout centuries past. Its presence amidst this arid landscape evokes feelings of wonder and reverence for those who visit or behold it through photographs like this one. CM Dixon's masterful composition captures both the physical majesty and spiritual essence that emanate from Ad Deir Monastery. This remarkable artwork invites us to explore our connection with ancient civilizations while appreciating their enduring contributions to our collective human story.
