Description
Abandoned Sacred Places by Lawrence Joffe is a poignant exploration of places left behind by human presence. Thousands of years old structures such as Stonehenge and Carnac, alongside crumbling inner city churches and synagogues in Detroit and Chicago, are revealed through 200 outstanding colour photographs. These hauntingly beautiful locations showcase the impact of nature reclaiming land when humanity retreats. From ancient Roman temples to Mayan pyramids in Mexico, and from Hindu temples lost in the Indian jungle to Buddhist shrines in the Chinese desert, each image offers a unique perspective on the passage of time. With over 100 lost worlds documented through these photographs, Abandoned Sacred Places is a moving examination of the consequences of human absence.
