EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Zohra Bensemra showcases the awe-inspiring Roman ruins of Djemila, located near the eastern Algerian city of Setif. The image captures a general view of this historical site, which is situated approximately 300km (186 miles) from Algiers. The photograph transports viewers to a time long past, where remnants of an ancient civilization stand as a testament to human ingenuity and architectural brilliance. The composition beautifully frames the ruins against a backdrop of clear blue skies, allowing for every intricate detail to be appreciated. Djemila, also known as Cuicul in Roman times, was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1982 due to its exceptional preservation and cultural significance. This snapshot offers us a glimpse into the rich history that lies within these weathered stones. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of the enduring legacy left behind by those who once inhabited these now crumbling structures. It serves as both an invitation and inspiration for visitors to explore and immerse themselves in Algeria's remarkable past. Zohra Bensemra's skillful photography not only captures the physical beauty but also evokes emotions tied to nostalgia and wonderment. Through her lens, she invites us on a visual journey through time - one that encourages appreciation for our shared heritage and sparks curiosity about civilizations long gone.
