EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the timeless beauty of the tombs and discoidales in a traditional Basque cemetery at Chapelle Saint Cyprien. The 12th-century chapel stands as a silent witness to centuries of history in Ascombeguy, nestled in the Pyrenees Atlantiques region of Aquitaine. The intricate carvings on the tombs speak to the rich cultural heritage of the Basque people, with each symbol and design holding deep meaning and significance. The cross, a powerful religious symbol, is prominently featured throughout the cemetery, reminding visitors of the spiritual traditions that have endured through generations. As you gaze upon this image, you can almost feel the weight of history pressing down upon these ancient stones. The star motifs carved into some of the tombs add an element of mystery and intrigue to this sacred space, inviting contemplation and reflection. This photograph by Jean Bernard captures not just a physical place but also a sense of reverence for tradition and legacy. It serves as a reminder that even in our modern world, there are places where time seems to stand still, preserving stories and memories for future generations to discover.
