EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the ancient tombs and discoidales of a traditional Basque cemetery at Chapelle Saint Cyprien in Ascombeguy, Pyrenees Atlantiques, Aquitaine. The 12th-century chapel stands as a symbol of history and tradition in the Basque country, with its intricate carvings and religious significance.
The circular shape of the tombs is reminiscent of the cycle of life and death, while the crosses etched into them represent faith and spirituality. Each tomb tells a story of those who have passed on, their memories preserved in stone for generations to come.
As you gaze upon this image, you can almost feel the weight of history that surrounds these sacred grounds. The star carving adds an element of mystique to the scene, inviting contemplation on the mysteries of life and beyond.
In this corner of France's Atlantic Pyrenees region, time seems to stand still as you wander through this timeless cemetery. It serves as a reminder that our ancestors are never truly gone – their spirits live on in these hallowed grounds.
Jean Bernard has captured not just a photograph but a piece of living history with this image. It serves as a poignant reminder of our mortality and the enduring power of tradition and faith.
