EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Huaca Huallamarca, an awe-inspiring adobe pyramid located in San Isidro, Lima, Peru. Taken by the talented photographer Luis Rosendo in 2015, this image beautifully captures the essence of this sacred archaeological site. Huaca Huallamarca derives its name from Quechua language, where "wak a" refers to a local god of protection or a sacred object/place and "Walla" represents the village or people associated with it. This remarkable structure is also known as Huaca Pan de Azucar due to its resemblance to a sugar loaf. Built by the Inca culture during the 15th century, this ancient pyramid holds great historical significance. Situated within the district of San Isidro in Lima, it stands as a testament to Peru's rich cultural heritage. The photograph highlights not only the architectural grandeur of Huaca Huallamarca but also provides insight into its spiritual importance for indigenous communities. The use of adobe construction adds an earthy charm to this monumental site. Luis Rosendo's skillful composition allows viewers to appreciate both the scale and intricate details present in every corner of this magnificent structure. It serves as a reminder that even after centuries have passed since its creation, Huaca Huallamarca continues to inspire wonder and admiration among all who visit or gaze upon it through photographs like these.
