EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to an ancient street in Hierapolis, a once-thriving Greco-Roman city perched atop hot springs in southwestern Turkey. The name "Hierapolis" itself translates to "holy city" and it's easy to see why this place was considered sacred. In the image, we witness the remnants of a bygone era, with destruction evident on every corner. The horizontal composition allows our eyes to wander through the scene, taking in the rich history that surrounds us. As we explore further, we notice architectural columns standing tall amidst old ruins, serving as silent witnesses to classical Greek influence. The shadow cast by a nearby tree adds depth and mystery to this already enchanting tableau. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this photograph also serves as a testament to human ingenuity and cultural heritage. It captures an international landmark recognized by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site – an archaeological treasure trove that sheds light on both Greek and Turkish cultures throughout history. Frans Sellies skillfully conveys the timeless beauty of Hierapolis through his lens; he invites us into this ancient world where each stone tells a story waiting patiently for discovery. This print is not just art but also an invitation for travel enthusiasts and history buffs alike to embark on their own journey of exploration and appreciation for our shared past.
