“It is the wild, stubborn and unconquerable spirit of this ancient country that has drawn me back again and again for almost 40 years.Much as outsiders try to reform it, Afghanistan never really changes. It has absorbed blows for millennia, but always continues on as before, defiantly outside of time as we know it. And yet without even trying to, Afghanistan changes everyone who spends time there. It has certainly changed me."~ Steve McCurry Steve began his photographic career in earnest in Afghanistan. He gained his International reputation from his early work there that set the pattern for his unique approach to storytelling.While no part of this original building survives, progressive renovation has resulted in one of the most exquisite and sacred monuments in Afghanistan. Steve has created a balletic interpretation with his usual lush colors of this special place.
