EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing beauty of Cambodia's ancient civilization at its peak. The image takes us to Angkor Thom, a remarkable archaeological site listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1992. Founded by the visionary King Jayavarman VII between 1181 and 1220, this historical gem is home to the magnificent Buddhist temple of Bayon. The focal point of this photograph is an intricately carved bas-relief that adorns one of Bayon's walls. This exquisite artwork depicts scenes from war, religion, and everyday life during the late 12th century. A warrior on horseback commands attention with his fierce determination, symbolizing strength and valor in battle. As we delve deeper into this visual narrative, we are transported back in time to witness the grandeur of Angkor's past. The building exterior stands tall against a clear blue sky while showcasing male likenesses and animal representations that hold significant religious symbolism within Hinduism. With no people present in the frame, our focus remains solely on these ancient relics that have stood the test of time. This horizontal composition invites us to explore every intricate detail etched onto stone—a testament to human creativity and craftsmanship. Through this print by DEA / C. SAPPA UIG from Universal Images Group (UIG), we are reminded of Cambodia's rich cultural heritage preserved within its architectural wonders—an invitation for all travel enthusiasts seeking awe-inspiring destinations steeped in history.
