EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Hugh Rooney showcases the mesmerizing beauty of Zelve Open Air Museum in Cappadocia, Turkey. The image transports us to a place where time stands still, capturing the essence of a forgotten era. Zelve is an enchanting valley where three abandoned valleys converge, once inhabited until 1952 when it was deemed too perilous for human habitation. These abandoned houses and churches now serve as haunting reminders of a bygone civilization. Among these relics lies Uzumlu Kilise, also known as The Church with Grapes, which adds an air of mystique to this already intriguing landscape. The erosion-driven geographic features and rock formations in Zelve are truly awe-inspiring. Carved into troglodyte caves that blend seamlessly with the surrounding rocks, these ancient dwellings offer a glimpse into the lives of those who once called them home. Rooney's expert composition captures the essence of this unique destination while highlighting its historical significance. This print not only serves as a visual feast for travel enthusiasts but also sparks curiosity about the rich cultural heritage hidden within Cappadocia's rocky terrain. With its timeless appeal and undeniable charm, this photograph invites viewers to embark on their own journey through history and explore the wonders that lie within Zelve Open Air Museum.
