EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the hauntingly beautiful ruins of the Church of St George of the Latins in Famagusta, North Cyprus. Believed to have been constructed during the late 13th century by the Lusignans, French Crusaders who ruled over Cyprus at that time, this architectural marvel stood as a testament to Christian faith and medieval craftsmanship. However, its grandeur was short-lived as it succumbed to decay after the Ottoman conquest of Cyprus in 1571. The image captures the essence of this historical site with its sharp details and vibrant colors. The crumbling walls stand tall amidst a backdrop of wild flowers, symbolizing both nature's resilience and man's transience. It is an evocative portrayal that transports viewers back to a bygone era filled with religious devotion and cultural exchange. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are reminded not only of the church's significance within Cypriot history but also its connection to France and wider Mediterranean influences. Vivienne Sharp skillfully captured these elements through her lens, allowing us to appreciate both the architectural beauty and natural surroundings. This print serves as a poignant reminder that even in ruin, there is still beauty to be found – a testament to humanity's enduring spirit throughout centuries past.
