EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this black and white Victorian lantern slide of the Street of Tombs in Syracuse, Sicily. Dating back to the ancient Greek and Roman periods, this historic street is filled with votive niches and Byzantine graves, each telling a story of the past. The serene atmosphere is interrupted only by the presence of a man, setting up his camera and tripod in the scene. The late 19th century comes alive as we imagine him capturing this moment for posterity. The Street of Tombs, located in the Archaeological Park of Neapolis, has been a source of fascination for travelers and historians alike for centuries. Sicily, the largest island in the Mediterranean Sea, has a rich history that spans various civilizations, from the Greeks and Romans to the Arabs and Normans. The island's unique blend of cultures is reflected in its architecture, art, and cuisine. As you gaze at this image, take a moment to appreciate the intricately carved niches and the worn, time-weathered graves. The Street of Tombs in Syracuse is a testament to the island's rich history and the enduring allure of the past.
