EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by KS, we are transported to the enchanting city of Rome, Italy. Standing tall and proud at the entrance gates to the Vatican, a Swiss guard commands our attention with his striking uniform. The image perfectly encapsulates the rich heritage and cultural significance that Rome holds as one of the world's most iconic cities. The Swiss guard, known for their distinctive Renaissance-style uniforms, symbolizes centuries-old traditions and serves as a testament to Italy's historical ties with Switzerland. As guardians of the Vatican City State since 1506, they protect its sacred sites and ensure security within its walls. This photograph not only showcases an emblematic figure but also highlights Rome's status as both the capital of Italy and a UNESCO World Heritage site. Its ancient Roman ruins blend seamlessly with modern Italian life while preserving its unique charm. Rome is often referred to as "the Eternal City" or "Citta Eterna" evoking feelings of timelessness and immortality. It is a place where past meets present in perfect harmony, offering visitors an opportunity to immerse themselves in dolce vita – the sweet life. Through this stunning image by KS from Discover Images by AWL, we are reminded of Rome's allure: a city where history breathes through every stone and culture thrives around every corner.
