EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Oswaldo Rivas, we are drawn to the serene presence of a statue of the Virgin Mary. Standing proudly outside the Metropolitan Cathedral in Managua, Nicaragua, she serves as a powerful religious symbol and an emblem of faith for worshippers. The image captures the essence of devotion as the Virgin Mary stands atop a roof against a backdrop of clear blue skies. The creative use of space allows her figure to dominate the frame, emphasizing her significance within this religious setting. With no people present in the photograph, our attention is solely focused on this duplicate representation of Mother Mary. Her weathered exterior suggests years spent standing tall amidst changing seasons and turbulent weather conditions - a testament to unwavering faith. As we gaze upon this striking image, it evokes feelings of tranquility and reverence. The architectural beauty of the cathedral's dome adds depth to the composition while reminding us that religion can be found not only within its walls but also in open air spaces like these. Oswaldo Rivas' skillful capture invites viewers to reflect on their own beliefs and spirituality. It serves as a reminder that even in our modern world, symbols such as statues continue to hold immense meaning for those who seek solace and guidance through prayer and worship.
