EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing night view of Sacsahuaman Fortress in Cusco, Peru. Taken in 2015 by the talented photographer Luis Rosendo, this image beautifully captures the intricate lighting that illuminates the ancient citadel. Sacsahuaman, also known as Saksaq Waman in Quechua language (meaning falcon or variable hawk), is a historic site located on the northern outskirts of Cusco. Its origins date back to around 1100 when sections were initially built by the Killke culture who had inhabited the area since 900. Throughout centuries, Sacsahuaman was expanded and enhanced by the Inca civilization starting from the 13th century. The Inca people skillfully constructed dry stone walls using massive boulders that were meticulously cut to fit together tightly without any mortar. Perched at an impressive altitude of 3,701 meters (12,142 feet), this fortress stands as a testament to both human ingenuity and architectural brilliance. Its grandeur and historical significance make it one of Peru's most treasured heritage sites. Luis Rosendo's photograph not only captures the magnificence of Sacsahuaman but also transports viewers into its mystical ambiance under a starry night sky. This stunning visual representation invites us to appreciate and marvel at this remarkable feat accomplished by ancient civilizations long ago.
