EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of history and culture within the Drum Tower, a magnificent architectural masterpiece in Beijing, China. Originally built in 1273 during the Mongol era, this later Ming dynasty version stands tall as a symbol marking the center of the old Mongol capital. Inside this iconic landmark, three skilled drummers stand with their musical instruments in hand. Their vibrant traditional attire adds a splash of color to the scene, reflecting the rich heritage of Chinese culture. With their backs turned towards us, we witness their intense focus as they prepare to unleash rhythmic beats that have echoed through time. The Drum Tower itself is an awe-inspiring sight to behold. Its intricate design and historical significance make it a must-visit destination for travelers seeking to immerse themselves in China's past. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back centuries ago when emperors ruled and dynasties thrived. Photographers Christian Kober and Robert Harding have masterfully captured not only the physical beauty but also the palpable energy within these ancient walls. The horizontal composition allows us to appreciate every detail while emphasizing its grandeur. Whether you are drawn by architecture or fascinated by history, this print serves as a reminder that some landmarks transcend time – connecting us deeply with our roots and reminding us of our shared human story.
