Portfolio “Mezquita de Córdoba”

We visited the "Mezquita" end of May 2021, just opened on an early Sunday morning after being closed for some time due to the Covid-19. With few visitors, this gave plenty of opportunities to walk around and take pictures.

Originally a Roman temple, later a Visigoth church, the site became a shared place of worship when the Moors took Andalusia in 711—an extraordinary act of tolerance for the time. This harmony ended in 784 when Emir Abd al-Rahman ordered the church's demolition to build a grand mosque. Expanded over two centuries by 987, it was the largest in the Islamic world, second only to the Kaaba in Mecca.

Portfolio “Paris 1974”

In 1974, I made a short trip to Paris, my first visit to the City of Light. Despite the bad weather, I enjoyed the charm of this beautiful city.
