EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent fortress on Lindos Acropolis, a true testament to the architectural prowess of the 14th century. Built by the esteemed knights of the Order of St John of Jerusalem, this fortress stands proudly atop the ancient Greek acropolis in Rhodes, Greece. Against a backdrop of clear blue skies, this building exterior exudes strength and grandeur. Its imposing facade commands attention and transports viewers back in time to an era filled with chivalry and valor. The vibrant colors captured in this image bring life to every intricate detail, highlighting its historical significance. The concept behind this fortress is one of protection and access control. As part of an order dedicated to defending Christianity during turbulent times, it served as both a stronghold against potential threats and a symbol of power for those who sought refuge within its walls. Photographer CM Dixon expertly captures the essence of this fourteenth-century marvel through his lens. His meticulous attention to detail allows us to appreciate not only the architectural brilliance but also feel connected to its rich history. This print serves as a reminder that even centuries later, these structures continue to inspire awe and admiration for their enduring beauty. It is a timeless piece that invites us into a world where knights once roamed these hallowed grounds in defense of their beliefs.
