This print showcases the magnificent Church of Santa Maria, a UNESCO World Heritage Site nestled in Ilocos Norte, Northern Luzon, Philippines. The image captures the essence of tradition and colonialism that still resonates within this architectural marvel. The vibrant blue hues of the church's exterior stand out against the clear sky, creating a striking visual contrast. Its baroque design, dating back to the 18th century, exudes historical significance and heritage. As you gaze up at its towering structure from a low angle perspective, you can't help but feel awe-inspired by its grandeur. The Church of Santa Maria holds immense cultural importance as it represents centuries-old Catholicism in the Philippines.

Photographer Michael Runkel/Robert Harding skillfully captures every intricate detail with his lens - from the color palette to the building's exterior. This photograph transports viewers into another era where Spanish influence shaped traditional culture in Southeast Asia. As an UNESCO World Heritage Site and national landmark, this site attracts visitors from all over who seek to immerse themselves in its rich history and experience its traditionally Spanish charm firsthand.
