EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the grandeur and historical significance of Parakramabahu's Royal Palace in Polonnaruwa, Sri Lanka. As a UNESCO World Heritage Site located within the Cultural Triangle, this architectural marvel stands as a testament to the rich cultural heritage of this Asian nation. The ornate details and intricate craftsmanship displayed in this ancient palace reflect the deep-rooted influence of Buddhism on Sri Lankan culture. The vibrant green surroundings add a touch of serenity to the majestic structure, transporting viewers back in time to the 12th century when it was built. With its weathered stone walls and imposing presence, this photograph captures both the resilience and beauty of history. Each element tells a story - from the steps and staircases that once echoed with footsteps of royalty, to remnants that whisper tales from centuries past. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of how architecture can transcend time and serve as a place for worship, reflection, and connection with our ancestors. It serves as an invitation for travelers to explore archaeological sites like Polonnaruwa; places where one can immerse themselves in history while appreciating their own place within it. Matthew Williams-Ellis/Robert Harding's skillful photography transports us into another era while reminding us of our shared human experience across cultures and generations.
