EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the timeless beauty of Apollo standing amidst the haunting ruins of Pompeii. Once a thriving Roman town, Pompeii was tragically destroyed in 79AD by the catastrophic eruption of Mount Vesuvius. Now designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, these ancient remains near Naples, Campania continue to fascinate visitors from around the globe. In this image, Apollo stands tall and majestic against a backdrop of crumbling walls and weathered columns. The statue's serene expression seems to reflect upon the rich history that surrounds it. As one gazes at this scene, they are transported back in time to an era when gods were worshipped and civilizations flourished. The contemporary artistry captured by Ethel Davies/Robert Harding adds depth and vibrancy to this photograph. The colors come alive as if breathing new life into these old ruins. It serves as a reminder that even though centuries have passed since their creation, these remnants still hold immense value for archaeologists and history enthusiasts alike. As we contemplate this image, we can't help but marvel at how human civilization has evolved over time while simultaneously recognizing our connection to those who came before us. This print is not just a visual representation; it is an invitation to explore our past, appreciate our present surroundings, and ponder what lies ahead on our own personal journeys through time.
