EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Alexander Robinson showcases the contrasting beauty and complexity of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The image captures a breathtaking view of Rocinha favela, nestled against the backdrop of Corcovado mountain and its iconic statue of Christ the Redeemer. The vibrant colors and vertical composition draw you into this urban scene, where traditional Brazilian culture meets modernity. The towering residential buildings in Rocinha stand as a testament to the resilience and spirit of its inhabitants, while the lush trees provide a natural contrast to the concrete jungle. In this snapshot, we see an elevated view that highlights both the international landmark status of Christ the Redeemer and the bustling activity within Rocinha. Incidental people in the background add depth to this dynamic photograph, reminding us that life continues amidst these famous landmarks. Robinson's skillful use of color brings out every detail in this image – from the vivid blue sky to the warm hues found throughout Rio de Janeiro. This print is not just a travel destination captured through photography; it is an invitation for viewers to immerse themselves in Brazilian tradition and experience firsthand what makes South America so enchanting. With his lens capturing such remarkable moments, Alexander Robinson invites us all on an unforgettable journey through time-honored streets filled with history, culture, and awe-inspiring landscapes.
