EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the rich cultural heritage of Italy's Lombardy Region. The image features an intricate rock engraving found in Valcamonica, specifically at the National Archeological Park of Massi di Cemmo in Capo di Ponte, Brescia province. This site holds immense historical significance as it is part of the UNESCO World Heritage List since 1979. The detail captured in this photograph highlights a prehistoric Camunian rock engraving from the Iron Age. It depicts a mesmerizing scene of ancient civilization with its art and craft on full display. The horizontal composition allows us to appreciate every element within the frame. Intriguingly, this particular engraving portrays a hunting scene where a deer takes center stage. Its representation symbolizes both survival and reverence for nature during that era. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported back in time to witness how our ancestors expressed themselves through stone carvings. The absence of people adds an air of mystery and invites us to imagine what life was like during those ancient times. Surrounded by breathtaking natural beauty, these engravings serve as a testament to human creativity and resilience throughout history. As we admire this remarkable piece from Italy's past, let us remember the importance of preserving such invaluable treasures for future generations to appreciate and learn from.
