EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph transports us back in time to the ancient ruins of Anuradhapura, specifically showcasing the Thuparama Dagoba. Taken by an English photographer in the 19th century, this print captures a moment frozen in history. The image showcases the grandeur and architectural beauty of the Thuparama Dagoba amidst its crumbling surroundings. The intricate details of the dagoba's design are highlighted against a stark backdrop, emphasizing both its magnificence and decay. Anuradhapura was once a thriving city in Ceylon (now Sri Lanka), known for its rich cultural heritage and historical significance. This photo serves as a poignant reminder of the passage of time and how even great civilizations can fall into ruin. The composition draws our attention to every nook and cranny of this ancient structure, inviting us to explore its hidden stories. It evokes a sense of wonderment about what life might have been like during Anuradhapura's heyday. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are transported across continents and centuries, connecting with both the photographer's lens and those who walked these streets long ago. It is through photographs like these that we can appreciate not only artistry but also gain insights into our shared human history.
