EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the solemn beauty of the Memorial Cenotaph and the Genbaku Domu, also known as the Atomic Bomb Dome, in Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park, Japan. These iconic structures stand as powerful reminders of the devastating bombing that occurred at the end of World War II. The Memorial Cenotaph is a striking arch-shaped monument that holds a stone chest containing names of all those who lost their lives in the atomic bomb attack. It serves as a place for visitors to pay their respects and reflect on the tragedy that unfolded here. Standing tall amidst its surroundings is the Genbaku Domu, or Atomic Bomb Dome, which was once an industrial promotion hall before being reduced to ruins by the bomb's impact. Its skeletal remains now symbolize both destruction and resilience, serving as a poignant reminder of humanity's capacity for both devastation and hope. Designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, this historic location attracts countless visitors from around the world who come to honor those who perished and to promote peace. As we approach its 70th anniversary in 2015 since that fateful day in 1945 when Hiroshima was forever changed, this image serves as a timeless tribute to never forget our past while striving towards a future free from such horrors. Paul Brown's skillful capture allows us to appreciate not only these significant memorials but also their profound meaning within history.
