EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the breathtaking Machoqolqa Ruins, nestled in the picturesque Province of Chinchero, Cusco, Peru. Taken by the talented photographer Luis Rosendo in 2015, this image transports us to a time long ago when the Inca Culture thrived in these lands. The ruins depict stone platforms arranged meticulously on different levels along the hillside. These ancient agricultural techniques and engineering marvels are a testament to the ingenuity and skill of the Incas. Each platform served as an essential component of their sophisticated farming system, allowing them to cultivate crops at varying altitudes and optimize their harvests. As we gaze upon this photograph, we can't help but be awestruck by both the natural beauty surrounding these ruins and the impressive architectural feats accomplished by our ancestors. The harmonious integration of human structures with nature is evident here—a hallmark of Inca culture. Machoqolqa Ruins stand as a silent reminder of Peru's rich history and cultural heritage. They offer us a glimpse into an era where sustainable agriculture practices were employed centuries before they became popular today. Luis Rosendo's masterful capture not only preserves this historical site for future generations but also invites us to appreciate its significance within Peruvian history. This print serves as an enduring tribute to ancient civilizations' remarkable achievements and reminds us that there is much wisdom to be gleaned from our past.
