EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the timeless beauty of the Fort and Harbour in Alexandria, Egypt, taken in 2007 by Ethel Davies. The image showcases the majestic Citadel of Qaitbay, a historic fortress dating back to the 15th century, standing proudly on the shores of the Mediterranean Sea.
The intricate details of this ancient fortification are brought to life through Davies' expert eye for composition and color. The contrast between the vibrant hues of the sea and sky against the weathered stone walls of the citadel creates a captivating visual narrative that transports viewers back in time.
As one gazes upon this photograph, they can almost feel the echoes of centuries past reverberating through its walls. The rich history and cultural significance of Alexandria come alive in this single frame, reminding us of Egypt's enduring legacy as a cradle of civilization.
Davies' skillful depiction not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to her artistic talent and dedication to preserving heritage through photography. This print is more than just an image; it is a window into another world—one filled with mystery, wonder, and awe-inspiring beauty.
