EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the ethereal beauty of the ruins of the fortified walls and the Monastery of Pandanassa in Mistr, Greece. The image transports us to a bygone era, where history whispers through every stone. Taken in May 1994 by Filiberto Pittini, this photograph encapsulates a multitude of themes and emotions. The towering remains of the fortified walls stand as silent witnesses to centuries past, evoking feelings of solitude and silence. These military and defensive structures symbolize both strength and vulnerability, reminding us of our own psychological behavior when faced with adversity. Amidst this ancient landscape, we find solace in the presence of the Monastery of Pandanassa. A Christian religious sanctuary nestled amidst hillsides adorned with trees and vegetation. It serves as an allegory for peace and spiritual contemplation. Pittini's composition masterfully conveys a sense of melancholy sadness that permeates throughout this image. The dilapidated state of these once grand structures reflects not only their physical decay but also speaks to deeper physiological and psychological aspects within ourselves. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are reminded that landscapes hold more than just aesthetic value; they can reflect complex concepts or subjects expressed through their very existence. In capturing these ruins against nature's backdrop, Pittini invites us to ponder on our individual journeys through life – transient yet profound. In essence, this print is a testament to human resilience while simultaneously inviting introspection into our own psychological makeup. It beckons us to explore notions such as peace, allegory, abstract concept symbolism - all woven together within these crumbling walls standing tall against time itself.
