EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Lisi Niesner, a mesmerizing scene unfolds amidst the ancient tombstones of the old Jewish section at Zentralfriedhof cemetery in Vienna, Austria. As autumn casts its golden hues across the landscape, a group of deer gracefully navigate between the weathered gravestones. Their presence adds an unexpected touch of serenity and natural beauty to this sacred resting place. The juxtaposition of life and death captured in this image is both poignant and thought-provoking. The deer, symbols of grace and gentleness, seem to pay their respects as they roam freely among the final resting places of those who came before them. It serves as a reminder that nature continues to thrive even in spaces steeped with history and solemnity. Taken on October 30th, just ahead of All Saints Day when families gather to honor their departed loved ones, Niesner's photograph captures a fleeting moment where time seems suspended. The soft light filtering through the trees illuminates each detail - from the moss-covered stones to delicate fallen leaves - creating an ethereal atmosphere that invites contemplation. This evocative image speaks volumes about our connection with nature and our mortality. It reminds us that life persists even within places meant for remembrance and reflection. Through her lens, Lisi Niesner has masterfully captured not only a picturesque autumn day but also an enduring symbol of hope amidst sorrowful surroundings.
