About the artwork

This photograph by Matthias Barth was taken on the site of Göreme, as he traversed Turkey by car, one of the first stages of the long road trip that he took from his native Germany as far as Tibet. Göreme is the name of a Turkish valley, located in the province of Nev?ehir, in Cappadocia. The artist captured striking panoramas here, revealing these landscapes shaped by erosion. The valley of Göreme and its surrounds is home to cave sanctuaries, examples of Byzantine art from the post-iconoclast period, as well as houses, troglodyte villages and underground cities, the remains of a traditional culture whose origins date back to the 4th century. Each morning, hundreds of hot-air balloons fly over the gorges of Göreme, providing a breathtaking spectacle.
