EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Churches of Montserrat" takes us back to the 19th century, capturing the essence of these magnificent architectural wonders. The image showcases two churches, St Mary's Church and St Anthony's Church, standing proudly amidst the serene landscape of Montserrat. The devastation caused by a hurricane is evident in this photograph, as both churches appear partially destroyed. Despite their dilapidated state, there is an undeniable beauty that emanates from these sacred places of worship. The intricate details of the chancel and the ornate designs on their facades are still visible, reminding us of their former glory. Taken by an English photographer whose identity remains unknown but whose work has been preserved in a private collection, this image was originally featured in The Illustrated London News in August 1899. It serves as a poignant reminder of the power and resilience exhibited by these structures throughout history. Through the lens of photography, we are transported to a time long gone but not forgotten. This photograph allows us to appreciate both the artistry behind its creation and the historical significance it holds for Montserrat. As we gaze upon this striking image captured by Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we cannot help but feel a sense of awe at witnessing such timeless beauty intertwined with tales of destruction and rebirth.
