EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur of "The Great Ball Court" at Chichen Itza, a testament to the remarkable Mayan civilization. Dating back to the 9th century, this archaeological site in Yucatan State, Mexico showcases the intricate art and architecture that defined pre-Columbian times. Luisa Ricciarini's lens skillfully frames this exterior view of the ball court, highlighting its imposing size and detailed carvings. The image transports us back in time, allowing us to marvel at the craftsmanship and ingenuity of Mayan culture. As we gaze upon this ancient structure, we can almost hear echoes of intense matches played within its walls. The Great Ball Court was not merely a sports arena but also a sacred space where rituals were performed and societal hierarchies were reinforced. The photograph serves as a visual reminder of how civilizations rise and fall over centuries. Its composition invites contemplation on our own place within history's vast tapestry. This artwork is an homage to both human achievement and impermanence. Through Luisa Ricciarini's lens, we are granted access to a world long gone yet still present in these remnants. This print is not just an aesthetically pleasing piece; it is an invitation to explore our collective past while appreciating the beauty that endures through time.
