EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Philippe Lissac from Universal Images Group (UIG), we are transported to the serene and spiritual setting of Citeaux Abbey. Amidst the ancient walls of this medieval abbey, a monk is seen engrossed in his musical pursuit, skillfully playing a medieval sitar. The image beautifully encapsulates the harmonious blend of Christianity and music that resonates within these hallowed grounds. The monk's devotion to both his faith and artistry is palpable as he strums the strings with utmost concentration. His presence exudes an aura of tranquility, reflecting the deep spirituality that permeates through every corner of Citeaux Abbey. As rays of sunlight gently filter through stained glass windows, casting ethereal hues upon him, it becomes evident that this moment transcends time itself. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the power of music in religious practices. It showcases how melodies can elevate one's connection with divinity and provide solace amidst life's trials. Through his melodic notes, this monk not only pays homage to centuries-old traditions but also invites us to explore our own spiritual journeys. Lissac's lens has masterfully captured a scene where faith intertwines seamlessly with artistic expression at Citeaux Abbey. This visual testament reminds us that religion encompasses more than just rituals; it embraces all forms of human creativity and passion for something greater than ourselves – whether it be through prayer or melody.
