EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable Mayan stela J, an ancient artifact dating back to 756 AD. Located in Quirigua, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Guatemala, Central America, this outdoor archaeological marvel takes us on a journey into the past. The intricate carvings and vibrant colors of this contemporary photograph bring to life the rich history and religious significance of the Mayan civilization. Standing tall against the backdrop of nature's beauty, this stone monument represents more than just a travel destination; it is a testament to human ingenuity and cultural heritage. Every detail meticulously captured by photographers Christopher Rennie and Robert Hardin transports us to a time preceding our own existence. As we gaze upon this vertical image, we are reminded of the immense knowledge that lies within these ancient ruins. The Mayans' advanced understanding of astronomy, mathematics, and religion is etched onto every surface of Stela J. It serves as a reminder that civilizations rise and fall but their contributions endure through time. Through photography like this one, we can appreciate both the artistry behind these masterpieces and their historical significance. This color image invites us to explore not only Quirigua but also other archaeological sites across Mexico and Guatemala where remnants of Mayan civilization continue to captivate visitors from around the world.
