EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a medieval Italian village, Rocca Calascio, nestled close to Santo Stefano di Sessanio in the province of L'Aquila in Abruzzo. The image showcases an isolated church standing proudly amidst a picturesque landscape within the national park of Gran Sasso e Monti della Laga. The church stands alone, surrounded by lush green grass and towering mountains that seem to touch the sky. Its historic architecture tells tales from centuries past, evoking a sense of awe and wonder. The creative use of space highlights its significance as a symbol of faith and resilience. As we gaze at this breathtaking scene, our eyes are drawn towards the vast expanse of clouds floating above, creating an atmospheric backdrop against which this architectural gem shines brightly. Nature's beauty is showcased through every element present – from the majestic mountain peaks to the solitary tree standing tall beside the church. This image serves as a reminder that even in solitude, there is strength and beauty to be found. It invites us to appreciate both man-made structures and natural wonders harmoniously existing together. Through Siegfried Modola's lens, we are transported into a world where time seems suspended; where history whispers secrets only those who truly observe can hear.
