EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Philippe Lissac from Universal Images Group (UIG), we are transported to the ancient city of Lalibela in Ethiopia. The image showcases an old pilgrim, deeply immersed in her faith and spirituality, as she embarks on a journey towards the revered Bet Maryam church. The woman's weathered face tells a story of a lifetime filled with devotion and unwavering belief. Clad in traditional Ethiopian attire, she walks with purpose and determination along the rugged path that leads to her place of worship. Her steps echo those taken by countless generations before her, creating a profound connection between past and present. Lalibela is renowned for its rich religious history, particularly within Christianity. As one of Ethiopia's holiest cities, it attracts pilgrims from far and wide who seek solace, enlightenment, and divine intervention. This photograph beautifully captures the essence of this spiritual pilgrimage - a testament to the enduring power of faith. The African landscape serves as both backdrop and witness to this sacred journey. The vastness of nature surrounding the woman evokes feelings of awe and humility while reinforcing her deep-rooted connection to God's creation. Through Lissac's lens, we are reminded that religion transcends borders; it unites people across cultures through shared beliefs and practices. This image stands as a tribute not only to Catholicism but also to humanity's universal quest for meaning beyond ourselves – an eternal search for answers that brings us closer together despite our differences.
