EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the remnants of the Grunwald Monument in Krakow, Poland. Once a majestic symbol of Polish history and resilience, this monument was tragically destroyed during World War II on Matejko Square. The original sculpture, crafted by Antoni Wiwulski and later recreated by Marian Konieczny, depicted an equestrian figure of King Wladyslaw Jagiello alongside the standing figure of Lithuanian Prince Witold and the defeated figure of Ulrich von Jungingen at its base. The image showcases the enduring spirit of Krakow's architecture amidst its urban landscape. Despite the destruction caused by war, elements like this monument serve as poignant reminders of Poland's rich heritage. The intricate details captured in this photograph allow viewers to appreciate both the artistry behind each figure and their historical significance. Bennett Dean skillfully captures not only the physical remains but also evokes a sense of nostalgia for what once stood proudly in this city square. As we gaze upon these shattered fragments, we are reminded that even through devastation, there is beauty to be found – a testament to human resilience. This print serves as a powerful reminder that history cannot be erased entirely; it lives on through images like these, preserving our past for future generations to learn from and cherish.
