EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the grandeur and beauty of the Basilica do Bom Jesus de Matosinhos in Congonhas, Minas Gerais, Brazil. The basilica stands tall against a cloudy sky, its white exterior contrasting with the vibrant blue hues surrounding it. Built in the 18th century, this ornate structure is a testament to South America's rich Catholic heritage. The intricate architecture of the basilica showcases exquisite details that have stood the test of time. The vertical composition highlights its imposing presence, while the gate invites us to explore further into this sacred place of worship. As a UNESCO World Heritage Site and national landmark, it holds immense historical significance for both locals and visitors alike. In this photograph, we see an impressive statue adorning one side of the building—a male likeness that adds an extra layer of reverence to this already awe-inspiring sight. With no people present in the frame, our attention is solely focused on appreciating every aspect of this Brazilian cultural gem. Geoff Renner/Robert Harding has masterfully captured not only a moment frozen in time but also a glimpse into Brazil's past through his lens. This print serves as a reminder of how religion and history intertwine to create magnificent structures like Basilica do Bom Jesus de Matosinhos—a true testament to human creativity and devotion.
