EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Pascal Deloche from Universal Images Group, we are transported to the serene grounds of Akepe Monastery in Togo. The image beautifully captures a group of St Clare nuns immersed in their spiritual practice, radiating an aura of deep devotion and faith. Dressed in traditional habits, these African women embody the essence of Christianity as they dedicate their lives to serving God and others. Their presence within the monastery walls signifies a commitment to a life of prayer, contemplation, and selflessness. The composition exudes tranquility as the nuns stand together against a backdrop of lush greenery. Their expressions reflect unwavering determination and inner peace that can only come from years spent nurturing their relationship with God. This photograph not only celebrates the strength and resilience of these remarkable women but also highlights the universality of religious devotion across cultures. It serves as a reminder that spirituality knows no boundaries or limitations; it is an intrinsic part of human existence that transcends geographical borders. Deloche's masterful capture invites us into this sacred space, allowing us to witness firsthand the profound connection between faith and humanity. As we gaze upon this powerful image, we are reminded that religion has long been an integral aspect of African society – one that continues to shape its people's lives with unwavering conviction and unyielding hope.
