EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the serene beauty of the Buddha of Bamiyan, known as Shamama (Queen mother), a majestic female Buddha statue that once stood tall in Afghanistan's Bamiyan valley. Built in 507 AD, this ancient relic was a symbol of peace and spirituality for centuries.
Tragically, the Taliban regime destroyed Shamama and other Buddhist statues in the valley in 2001, leaving behind only memories and photographs like this one to preserve their legacy. Despite this act of cultural vandalism, the Bamiyan valley was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2003, recognizing its historical significance and importance to humanity.
In this image, we see the remnants of what once was a towering figure against a backdrop of rugged mountains and clear blue skies. The tranquility of nature surrounds the empty space where Shamama once stood, serving as a poignant reminder of both loss and resilience.
As we gaze upon this photograph, we are reminded not only of the destruction wrought by ignorance and intolerance but also of the enduring power of art and history to transcend time and connect us to our shared heritage. May these ruins stand as a testament to our collective responsibility to protect and preserve our cultural treasures for future generations.
