EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Stringer, we witness a breathtaking moment as the iconic statue of Christ the Redeemer illuminates the night sky in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The magnificent display serves as a powerful symbol marking Poland's 100 years of independence on November 11,2018. Standing tall and majestic atop Corcovado Mountain, the statue is bathed in vibrant lights that reflect off its outstretched arms and serene face. As darkness descends upon Rio de Janeiro, the illuminated figure becomes a beacon of hope and unity for both Poles and Brazilians alike. The significance of this image lies not only in its visual splendor but also in its representation of shared values between nations. It reminds us that freedom knows no boundaries or borders; it transcends language and culture. In celebrating Poland's centenary milestone, Christ the Redeemer stands as a testament to resilience, perseverance, and triumph over adversity. This photograph encapsulates an extraordinary moment where two countries converge through history and faith. It captures our imagination while reminding us of the enduring spirit that unites humanity across continents. Stringer's lens has skillfully frozen this poignant instant for eternity – a reminder to cherish our hard-fought freedoms while embracing solidarity among nations striving for liberty.
