21st Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Artistic
Lost in The Blue

The photo was taken in Italy, precisely in Southern Italy. It represents a woman with a veil lost in a blue background, where the sea and the sky merge. This photo symbolizes a protective, almost divine figure who watches over migrants forced to make a hellish crossing to reach Europe via the Mediterranean Sea
