EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic Fort San Felipe de Lara in Rio Dulce, Guatemala. Located in Central America, this historical fortress stands as a testament to Guatemalan culture and the rich history of the region. The image showcases the impressive architecture of the fort, with its stone walls reflecting beautifully on the calm waters surrounding it. Dating back to the 17th century, Fort San Felipe de Lara is a national landmark and an important part of Guatemala's heritage. Its strategic location along the river made it a vital defense structure during colonial times. Today, it is recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site for its cultural significance. The photograph perfectly encapsulates the tranquility of this place; palm trees sway gently in the breeze against a clear blue sky. With no people present in sight, one can truly appreciate both its architectural grandeur and serene surroundings. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported to another era - a time when forts like these were built for protection and defense. It serves as a reminder of our past and invites us to explore and learn from history. Peter Groenendijk/robertharding has masterfully captured not only an iconic travel destination but also an architectural marvel that continues to captivate visitors from around the world.
