EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the breathtaking beauty of Castel del Monte, a magnificent Gothic fortress nestled in the Apulia region of Italy. Built in 1240 by Hohenstaufen Emperor Frederick II, this architectural marvel stands proudly on the Murge plateau, exuding an aura of historic grandeur and strength. The image captures a picturesque scene where a winding path leads through lush green fields towards the imposing castle walls. The sun-kissed grass adds vibrancy to the landscape, creating a perfect contrast against the stone structure's timeless elegance. With its distinct turrets and intricate defense systems, Castel del Monte is not only an emblematic symbol of medieval architecture but also holds great historical significance. Recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1996, it serves as a testament to Emperor Frederick II's legacy and his vision for this strategic stronghold. As we gaze upon this horizontal composition bathed in daylight, our imagination transports us back to the 13th century when knights roamed these grounds and history was written within these very walls. This photo invites us to embark on a journey through time while exploring one of Italy's most enchanting travel destinations. In this particular shot captured by E. Cozzolino from Universal Images Group (UIG), there are no people present; however, their absence allows us to fully appreciate the majesty and tranquility that surrounds Castel del Monte. Let your eyes wander across this remarkable piece of history frozen in time on Apulia's vast plains
