EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing ruins of Thamugadi, also known as Timgad, an ancient Roman colonial town in Algeria. Founded by Emperor Trajan around 100 A. D. , this historic site holds immense archaeological significance and has been recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage List since 1982. The focal point of this image is the remnants of the forum, once a bustling center for political, social, and commercial activities. The grandeur of its architecture is evident even in its dilapidated state, with towering columns and intricate details that speak volumes about the advanced craftsmanship of the time. The landscape surrounding Thamugadi adds to its allure. With vast stretches of land extending into the horizon, one can't help but imagine how life would have thrived within these walls centuries ago. This horizontal composition perfectly captures the essence of this non-urban scene while emphasizing the sheer magnitude and historical importance of this ancient civilization. As we gaze upon this famous place devoid of people today, it serves as a poignant reminder that civilizations rise and fall but leave behind enduring traces for us to explore and learn from. This photograph not only transports us back in time but also ignites our curiosity about humanity's past achievements and their lasting impact on our present world.
