EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of the Guanche Statue, located in Candelaria, Tenerife in 2007. The Guanche people were the original inhabitants of the Canary Islands, and this statue pays homage to their rich cultural heritage. Standing proudly against the backdrop of the majestic Atlantic Ocean, it is a symbol of strength and resilience. Crafted from bronze, this life-sized sculpture showcases intricate details that bring it to life. Perched on a rocky coast, with waves crashing nearby, it exudes a sense of tranquility amidst nature's raw beauty. The vibrant colors add depth and vibrancy to this stunning piece. A bird perches upon the staff held by the statue - a dove or perhaps a pigeon - representing peace and freedom. This avian companion adds an element of grace and harmony to an already mesmerizing composition. Photographer Peter Thompson expertly captures every nuance in this image, allowing viewers to appreciate not only its artistic value but also its historical significance. Through his lens, we are transported back in time while simultaneously appreciating modern craftsmanship. This print serves as a visual reminder of our connection to history and culture. It invites us to reflect on our roots while embracing progress and change. Whether displayed at home or in public spaces, it will undoubtedly spark conversations about artistry, heritage preservation, and human ingenuity for years to come.
