EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Portrait of a man holding Christian symbols, Gabriel and Raphael, Bieta Mercurios" transports us to the enchanting Lalibela region in Ethiopia. The image showcases an elderly African man, adorned in traditional clothing and a turban, exuding wisdom and spiritualism. With his head held high and eyes gazing confidently at the camera, this senior citizen holds two precious Christian symbols - crosses of immense significance. As a clergyman or priest, he embodies the rich religious heritage that thrives within Ethiopian culture. The photograph beautifully captures the essence of indigenous spirituality and showcases the deep-rooted connection between faith and identity. This mature man's presence emanates strength as he clutches these symbolic treasures close to his heart. The vibrant colors of his attire reflect not only his individuality but also represent the diversity found across Africa. His weathered face tells stories untold; it is a testament to a life well-lived with experiences that have shaped him into who he is today. Through this powerful portrait, photographer Bruno Barbier/Robert Harding invites us on a journey to explore Ethiopia's cultural tapestry. It serves as a reminder that travel is not just about visiting destinations but about immersing ourselves in different traditions and embracing their spiritual significance.
