EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic Quadriga perched atop the iconic Cinquantenaire arch in Brussels. Erected in 1905 to replace a temporary monument commemorating Belgian independence, this architectural masterpiece stands as a testament to the nation's rich history and enduring spirit. Against a backdrop of an overcast sky, the Quadriga emerges as a striking silhouette, its four horses seemingly frozen mid-gallop. The creative use of light and shadow adds depth and drama to this urban cityscape, while billowing clouds lend an air of grandeur to the scene. The absence of people allows us to appreciate the sheer magnitude of this landmark sculpture. With no distractions, our gaze is drawn towards its intricate details: each horse's muscular form, their manes flowing gracefully in the wind; their charioteer firmly gripping the reins with determination. As we contemplate this image, we are reminded of how art can seamlessly blend with nature. The Quadriga appears almost ethereal against the vast expanse of sky – a harmonious fusion between human creation and natural elements. Yves Herman's skillful composition invites us into a moment frozen in time. It encourages us to reflect on our place within history and marvel at mankind's ability to create lasting symbols that transcend generations. In capturing this timeless monument through his lens, Herman has given us not only a stunning visual spectacle but also an opportunity for introspection amidst bustling city life.
