EDITORS COMMENTS
A mesmerizing symbol of ancient civilization, this close-up print captures a view of a dragon adorning the walls of the historic city of Babylon near Hilla, Iraq. Taken on July 5,2019, by Thaier Al-Sudani for Reuters Images, this architectural masterpiece stands as a testament to the rich cultural heritage and creative ingenuity of our ancestors. Designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the ancient city's exterior walls are adorned with mythical creatures like this fictional animal – the dragon. With its intricate details and captivating presence against the backdrop of an azure sky, it transports us back in time to when dragons were believed to roam these lands. The photograph showcases not only the remarkable craftsmanship but also highlights how ancient Egyptian influences permeated through different civilizations. The dragon serves as an emblematic representation that transcends borders and connects diverse cultures. With no people in sight, this image invites viewers to immerse themselves in contemplation within its copy space. It sparks curiosity about what life was like during those times and ignites a desire to explore further into history's mysteries. Thaier Al-Sudani has masterfully captured this tourist attraction from an angle that emphasizes both its grandeur and delicate intricacies. This print is more than just art; it is a window into humanity's past.
