EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Universal Images Group (UIG) transports us back in time to the ancient city of Cyrene, located in Historical Cyrenaica, Libya. The image showcases a mesmerizing architectural detail of the Roman temple of Asclepius, specifically focusing on its column capital. The intricate craftsmanship and attention to detail are evident as we observe the beautifully carved spiral design adorning this abandoned structure. It serves as a poignant reminder of the rich history and ancient civilization that once thrived within these walls. As we gaze upon this stone relic against the backdrop of a clear blue sky, it is impossible not to be awestruck by its grandeur and significance. This international landmark stands tall amidst the Libyan capital, El Beida, silently narrating tales from a distant past. The sculpture's weathered appearance adds an air of mystery and intrigue to this old ruin. It invites us to ponder over centuries gone by and marvel at how such magnificent structures were built with sheer determination and skill. In preserving moments like these through photography, UIG allows us to connect with our collective human heritage. This print encapsulates both beauty and historical importance while reminding us that even in abandonment, there is still immense value in appreciating our past.
