The Majestic Statue of King Carlos I - A Timeless Landmark in Cascais, Portugal
EDITORS COMMENTS
. Captured by Alexandre Rotenberg/robertharding, this stunning print showcases the grandeur and historical significance of the statue of King Carlos I. Erected in 1903, this impressive monument stands proudly at the entrance to the picturesque city of Cascais, Portugal. Against a clear blue sky and with no people in sight, the statue commands attention with its regal presence. The horizontal composition allows us to appreciate every intricate detail of this magnificent work of art. Its rear view reveals a shadowy reflection on the calm waters below, adding an ethereal touch to the scene. Located near a vibrant marina filled with boats and surrounded by architectural wonders, including charming buildings that line the waterfront, this statue serves as a symbol of Portuguese history and culture. It pays homage to King Carlos I—a male likeness frozen in time—reminding us of his significant contributions during his reign. The long exposure technique employed by Rotenberg enhances our visual experience by capturing movement within stillness. This creates a sense of tranquility as we gaze upon this coastal gem bathed in natural light. Cascais itself is renowned for its idyllic seaside charm and rich maritime heritage. As one explores its shores and coastline along Europe's western edge, it becomes evident why it has become such a sought-after travel destination for tourists from around the world. This remarkable photograph not only captures an iconic landmark but also transports viewers into an enchanting world where history meets modernity amidst breathtaking natural beauty.
