EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing mud-built skyscrapers of Shibam, located in Yemen's Hadhramaut region. Often referred to as the "Manhattan of the Desert" this unique architectural marvel is a testament to human ingenuity and resilience. The image captures the essence of Arabian charm and Middle Eastern heritage. The skyline of Shibam is adorned with towering structures made entirely out of mud bricks, creating a breathtaking sight that transports you back in time. Each building leans slightly, adding character and an element of intrigue to this ancient town. It is no wonder that UNESCO has recognized Shibam as a World Heritage site, preserving its rich cultural significance for generations to come. The photographer, NLR from Discover Images by AWL, skillfully captures the intricate details and grandeur of these mud skyscrapers against a backdrop reminiscent of Arabia's golden era. The warm hues and play of light bring life to every brick and corner captured within the frame. This print serves as a window into another world - one where tradition meets innovation, where history stands tall amidst modernity. It invites viewers on a visual journey through time and space while celebrating the beauty found in unconventional architecture.
