EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking print captures the ancient ruins of Carthage, a once powerful city in North Africa. The image showcases the Villas romaines, illustrating the grandeur and sophistication of this historic site.
Founded by the Phoenicians in the first millennium BC, Carthage was later conquered by Rome in the 2nd century BC after a long and fierce battle. The remnants of this conflict can still be seen in the ruins that stand tall today.
The intricate details of the architecture speak to a time of opulence and prosperity for this great empire. Each column and archway tells a story of conquest and defeat, as well as resilience and endurance.
Carthage is now a seaside suburb of Tunis, but its legacy lives on through these ancient archaeological sites. This print serves as a reminder of the rich history that has shaped this region over centuries.
As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to an era when empires clashed and civilizations rose and fell. It is a testament to human ingenuity and ambition, captured beautifully by the lens of a French photographer from the early 20th century.
