EDITORS COMMENTS
View of the River Tigris from the Ziggurat, Ashur, Iraq, 1977 captures a mesmerizing snapshot of ancient beauty frozen in time. This stunning photograph by Vivienne Sharp transports us to the heart of Mesopotamia, where history and nature intertwine. The image showcases the breathtaking landscape surrounding Ashur, an archaeological site that once thrived as the capital city of Assyria. The mighty River Tigris gracefully winds its way through this enchanting land, reflecting the vibrant colors of a setting sun. Its tranquil waters provide life to lush vegetation along its banks, creating a striking contrast against the arid desert backdrop. From atop the Ziggurat – an architectural marvel rising proudly from centuries past – one can truly appreciate the grandeur and scale of this ancient civilization. The sharp lines and intricate details etched into stone tell tales of a prosperous era long gone but not forgotten. Vivienne Sharp's masterful use of color brings out every nuance in this scene. The vivid hues breathe life into each tree and plant dotting the riverbank while accentuating every contour on display. This photograph serves as both a visual feast for our eyes and a poignant reminder of humanity's enduring connection with nature throughout time. It invites us to reflect upon our place within history's tapestry while igniting curiosity about those who came before us.
