EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the enchanting beauty of Switzerland's Bern, specifically its Old City. The focal point of this image is the magnificent Clock Tower, also known as Zeitglockenturm or Zytglogge in German. Dating back to 1530, this architectural marvel stands tall and proud, symbolizing the rich history and heritage of Bern. The intricate details of the clock tower are truly mesmerizing. Every element seems meticulously crafted, from the decorative sculptures adorning its exterior to the precise timekeeping mechanisms within. This masterpiece serves as a testament to the skill and craftsmanship of artisans from centuries past. As part of Bern's Old City, which has been recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1983, this clock tower holds immense cultural significance. It represents not only an architectural gem but also a tangible link to Bern's past—a reminder of how human settlements have evolved over time. In this particular shot captured by DEA / C. SAPPA UIG from Universal Images Group (UIG), we see a close-up detail that highlights both male and animal representations on the clock tower. The low angle view adds depth and grandeur to the composition while emphasizing its dominance against the clear blue sky. This print transports viewers into a bygone era where time stood still yet continues ticking away through these timeless structures that grace our modern world today.
