EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 1930s, capturing a mesmerizing scene in Ypres, Belgium. The image showcases the juxtaposition of two architectural marvels - The New Cathedral of St. Martins and the Cloth Hall Ruins. The New Cathedral of St. Martins stands tall with its grandeur, representing centuries of Christian heritage. Its intricate details and towering spires are a testament to the craftsmanship that went into its construction during the 13th century. As sunlight bathes its exterior on this beautiful day, it exudes an aura of serenity and spirituality. In stark contrast, we see the ruins of Cloth Hall nearby, remnants from another era that tell tales of history's trials and tribulations. Once a bustling center for trade in Flanders, these ruins now stand as a poignant reminder of past struggles. The composition beautifully captures both structures in one frame, offering viewers a glimpse into Belgium's rich cultural tapestry. It is impossible not to be captivated by this snapshot frozen in time; it speaks volumes about human resilience and our ability to rebuild even amidst destruction. As we gaze upon this photograph from "Tour of the World" courtesy of Keystone View Company, we are transported across continents without ever leaving our seats. It serves as a window into an unknown world yet sparks curiosity within us all – urging us to explore further beyond what meets the eye.
