EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection takes us back in time to the ancient city of Petra, located in Wadi Musa, Jordan. The image showcases the remarkable cult niches that once adorned this extinct city, specifically highlighting those containing Dushara pillars. The photograph captures the intricate details and craftsmanship of these niches, which were dedicated to various deities worshipped by the Nabateans who inhabited Petra centuries ago. Each niche tells a story of devotion and reverence through its unique design and symbolism. As we delve into this snapshot frozen in history, we are transported to a bygone era where spirituality intertwined with everyday life. The presence of Dushara pillars within some of these niches adds an extra layer of significance as they represent one of the most prominent gods worshipped by the Nabateans. The composition and lighting enhance our appreciation for both the architectural beauty and historical value contained within this single frame. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and artistic expression that has stood against the test of time. Through this photo print, we are reminded not only of Petra's grandeur but also its mysterious allure.
