EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we witness the harmonious blend of tradition and progress as a Chinese cyclist gracefully pedals through the historic grounds of the Forbidden City in Beijing. The image captures a moment frozen in time on October 28,2004, amidst an extensive renovation project that aims to restore the grandeur of this iconic landmark. The Forbidden City, with its rich history spanning over 600 years, is undergoing a remarkable transformation. Over 1,400 dedicated workers and engineers are tirelessly engaged in repainting, retiling, and rebuilding various crumbling imperial relics within its walls. This colossal endeavor comes at a staggering cost of more than 100 million yuan per year ($12 million dollars/year). What makes this restoration even more extraordinary is the collaboration between China and an unexpected ally - the World Cultural Heritage Foundation. As a U. S protection organization for cultural relics, they have lent their expertise to support this ambitious undertaking. Against this backdrop of renewal and preservation stands our lone cyclist – an embodiment of resilience and determination. Pedaling through these hallowed grounds serves as a poignant reminder that life continues to move forward amidst historical significance. This mesmerizing photograph by Claro Cortes IV encapsulates both the timeless beauty of ancient architecture and humanity's unwavering commitment to honoring its heritage. It reminds us that while change may be inevitable, it is essential to preserve our past for future generations to cherish and learn from.
