EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic rocky crest of the Ancient Observatory Kokino, bathed in the warm glow of the summer solstice. Taken on June 21,2019, by renowned photographer Robert ATANASOVSKI from Agence France-Presse (AFP), this horizontal illustration transports viewers to a world where nature and history intertwine seamlessly. The image showcases a remarkable rock pinnacle that stands tall against an awe-inspiring backdrop. The observatory itself is shrouded in mystery and has been a site of astronomical significance for centuries. As the sun rises gracefully behind it, casting its golden rays upon the ancient stones, one can't help but feel a sense of wonder at our connection to both time and space. Robert ATANASOVSKI's keen eye beautifully captures this offbeat moment when modernity meets antiquity. The photograph serves as a reminder of how humanity has always sought answers through observation and exploration. It invites us to contemplate our place within the vastness of our universe while appreciating the rich cultural heritage left by those who came before us. Whether displayed in homes or offices, this extraordinary print will undoubtedly spark conversations and inspire curiosity about Macedonia's historical treasures. With its striking composition and symbolic representation of sunrise on such a significant day, it serves as both an artistic masterpiece and an educational tool for all who lay their eyes upon it.
