EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Bennett Dean captures the essence of Tirana, Albania's vibrant capital city. The focal point is the majestic equestrian statue of national hero George Castriot Skanderbeg, standing tall in Skanderbeg Square. As if frozen in time, this fifteenth-century monument pays homage to a significant figure in Albanian history. The bustling square serves as a backdrop for this remarkable sculpture, with the grand Opera House peeking through behind it. The juxtaposition of ancient and modern architecture creates an intriguing visual contrast that reflects Tirana's evolving identity. In this snapshot, we witness a harmonious blend of art, history, and culture. The intricate details on the statue showcase skilled craftsmanship while symbolizing bravery and resilience. Surrounding it are people from all walks of life; locals going about their daily routines or tourists immersing themselves in the city's rich heritage. Dean skillfully captures not only the physical beauty but also the energy and liveliness that fill Skanderbeg Square. This image invites us to explore Tirana further – its music-filled streets, historic landmarks, and warm hospitality. Whether you're an admirer of art or simply fascinated by European destinations off the beaten path, this print transports you to Albania's capital city where tradition meets modernity in perfect harmony.
