EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the ruined city of Polonnaruwa in Ceylon, now known as Sri Lanka. The focal point of this image is the majestic Dalada Maligawa, a sacred temple that stands amidst the remnants of a once-thriving civilization. The photographer, Henry W. Cave, captures the essence of history and mystery in this stunning photograph taken during his visit to Ceylon in 1896. The intricate details of the temple's architecture are beautifully portrayed through the medium of gravure printing. As we gaze upon this image, we can't help but be transported to a bygone era where bustling cities have been reclaimed by nature's embrace. The ruins stand as silent witnesses to centuries past, their crumbling walls telling stories of grandeur and decline. The lush jungle surrounding Dalada Maligawa adds an air of enchantment to the scene. It serves as a reminder that even amidst decay and abandonment, nature continues its relentless march forward. This photograph not only showcases the historical significance of Polonnaruwa but also highlights Cave's skillful eye for capturing beauty within desolation. It invites us to reflect on our own impermanence and contemplate how civilizations rise and fall throughout time. Intriguingly evocative, this print offers a glimpse into both Sri Lanka's rich history and humanity's enduring fascination with ancient ruins.
