Artist's Comments

During my trip to Merida, in Spain, I took sometime to photograph a few cool locations. Did you know that the entire city of Merida is built on top of ancient Roman ruins? It's true, and you know what they do? Instead of not being able to build things in the ruins stie, they decide to excavate them, and build new buildings, surrounding them... Its like, ancient meets modern, don't you agree?

This here is the ancient Roman bridge that crosses the Guadiana River. It's really beautiful and it's very wel preserved. I hope you guys like it.

Those Romans certainly knew how to build to last, nice bridge, more impressive than the modern example in the background.

You're right, my friend. I also like more of this bridge than the modern one (I think the most modern bridges all lack of style when it ocmes to architectural style, don't you agree?).

Modern architecture is not built to last, most gets torn down in a few years for something bigger - no character, no art, no style - glitz and gimmicks are a poor substitute.
I wonder if we can even make a bridge like this now?

Em Mérida... Fui lá há uma semana atrás. Não pude deixar de fotografá-la.

Probably not... I mean, we may be able to do a similar one, but not like this one. This is perhaps unique and we might not be able to duplicate the style.
