EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing sight - some of the 5,000 menhirs standing tall at Carnac in Morbihan, Southern Brittany, France. These ancient Celtic monuments hold an air of mystery and magic as they align perfectly across the landscape. The image captures the essence of dawn, with a mystical mist enveloping the scene, adding to its enigmatic allure. These upright stones have stood here for centuries, remnants of a pre-Christian era that sparks curiosity among archaeologists and historians alike. They are believed to have been erected by druids or Gauls during prehistoric times, leaving us in awe of their engineering prowess and spiritual significance. The photograph transports us back in time as we contemplate the secrets these menhirs hold within their weathered surfaces. Each stone seems to whisper stories from ages past, inviting us to unravel their ancient wisdom. Credit is due to Harold Chapman who skillfully captured this ethereal moment on film in 2003.
