EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures the breathtaking beauty of Valle de las Piramides in Tucume, Lambayeque, Peru. Taken by Luis Rosendo in 2015, this image showcases the remarkable archeological site located just 35km north of Chiclayo. The valley is formed by the remains of multiple pyramids or Huacas on Cerro de la Raya. Valle de las Piramides holds great historical significance as it served as a ceremonial and administrative center for various cultures throughout history. Initially established as a Sican-La mbayeque Culture center from 1000 to 1370 AD, it was later annexed by the Chimu civilization from 1370 to 1470 AD. Finally, after the Inca conquest in 1470 AD until their downfall in 1532 AD, Valle de las Piramides became an integral part of their empire. This photograph provides us with a glimpse into prehispanic cultures that thrived in this region centuries ago. It reminds us of their architectural prowess and cultural heritage that still stands tall today. The intricate details preserved within these ancient structures are awe-inspiring and offer valuable insights into our past. Luis Rosendo's skillful composition allows viewers to appreciate both the grandeur of these pyramids and the natural beauty surrounding them. This print serves as a testament to human ingenuity and invites us to explore further into Peru's rich archaeological treasures.
