Extinct City Forum Gate Gerasa Jerash Jordan South Theatre
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection takes us on a journey back in time to the ancient city of Jerash, also known as Gerasa. The image showcases the remarkable ruins of the Church of St. George, offering a glimpse into the rich history and architectural marvels that once stood proudly in this extinct city. The focal point of this photograph is undoubtedly the grand forum gate, which stands tall and majestic against a backdrop of crumbling walls and scattered debris. This entranceway served as an important gateway for visitors entering or leaving the bustling forum area, where commerce and social activities thrived centuries ago. As our eyes wander further into the frame, we are treated to another striking feature - the south theatre. Its weathered stone steps bear witness to countless performances and gatherings that entertained crowds long gone. One can almost imagine echoes of applause reverberating through these ancient walls. Dating back to 1920 in Jordan, this snapshot encapsulates not only a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to humanity's enduring fascination with uncovering remnants from civilizations past. It invites us to reflect upon how societies rise and fall over generations while reminding us that even amidst decay, beauty can still be found. With its impeccable composition and attention to detail, this print by Liszt Collection transports viewers across continents and epochs alike – allowing them to connect with history on an intimate level.
