EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a mesmerizing detail of a sculptural relief on a rock at the ancient city of Monte Alban in Mexico. The focus is on a man with an imposing earring, symbolizing his status and perhaps his connection to the spiritual realm. To the left of this enigmatic figure, we see the representation of a hand, adding another layer of mystery to this archaeological treasure. The vibrant colors and intricate architectural details showcased in this pre-Columbian artwork transport us back in time, offering glimpses into the rich history and cultural heritage of the Zapotec civilization. As we gaze upon this vertical sculpture, created by an unknown artist centuries ago, we are reminded of their artistic prowess and their ability to convey complex narratives through stone. The ruins surrounding these remarkable reliefs serve as silent witnesses to Monte Alban's former glory. Santiago Ortega's lens skillfully captures both the grandeur and decay present within these ancient walls. This photograph serves as a testament to our collective human history, urging us to appreciate and preserve these invaluable remnants from our past.
