EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful image captures the aftermath of a destructive event that shook the heart of Gabon's political landscape. The charred interior of the parliament building stands as a haunting testament to the post-election protests that engulfed Libreville on September 20,2016. In this wide-angle shot taken by Edward McAllister, debris and damage are scattered throughout the urban cityscape, reflecting the intensity of conflict and unrest. The once majestic government building now lies in ruins, its architecture reduced to ashes and ruin. From an aerial view, we witness a desolate scene where creative use has been made of copy space - no people or signs of life remain. This abandoned structure serves as a somber reminder of how quickly tensions can escalate and destroy even the most revered symbols of power. The burnt remnants evoke feelings of loss and despair while also symbolizing resilience in face of adversity. As we gaze upon this image, we cannot help but ponder over what led to such destruction and contemplate its implications for Gabonese society. Edward McAllister's photograph is not just another snapshot; it is one that encapsulates both tragedy and hope within its frame. It reminds us that buildings may crumble under pressure, but the spirit to rebuild remains unyielding.
