EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the ancient world of Cornwall. The focal point of this print is the remarkable Lanyon Quoit, a dolmen that has stood the test of time as an enduring symbol of burial rituals and human history. The image showcases the Lanyon Quoit in all its glory, with its massive megalithic structure rising proudly against the backdrop of Cornwall's picturesque landscape. Its weathered capstone rests delicately upon upright stones, creating a single-chamber tomb that has fascinated archaeologists for centuries. Engraved with meticulous detail by an artist named Daniel Russelman, this artwork captures not only the physicality but also the essence and significance of this neolithic monument. It serves as a poignant reminder of our ancestors' reverence for life and death. As we gaze at this print, we are transported to an era long gone – where ancient civilizations sought solace in constructing these monumental structures. The absence of people allows us to focus solely on the magnificence and mystery surrounding Lanyon Quoit itself. Whether you are intrigued by historical artifacts or simply captivated by Cornwall's rich heritage, this engraving offers a window into another time. It invites contemplation about our place in history and reminds us that even buried deep within Earth's embrace lies evidence of humanity's enduring quest for meaning.
