EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "The Cross in the churchyard" takes us back to the 19th century with its intricate engraving. The image showcases a scene from history that is both haunting and powerful. In this stirring depiction, we find ourselves transported to Eyam, a small village plagued by tragedy. The cross stands tall amidst the churchyard, symbolizing hope and resilience in the face of adversity. It serves as a solemn reminder of the devastating events that unfolded during those dark times. The artist skillfully captures movement and action within this historical moment. We can almost feel the agitation in the air as we witness boys running through the churchyard, their excitement palpable despite the somber surroundings. Their presence adds an element of youthful energy to an otherwise melancholic scene. This engraving not only portrays a significant event but also evokes a sense of adventure for those who delve into its details. It invites us to explore further into history's moving accidents and stirring scenes, urging us to reflect on our own capacity for resilience when faced with challenging circumstances. "The Cross in the churchyard" is more than just an artwork; it is a window into another time – one filled with both darkness and light. Through this print, we are reminded of humanity's ability to endure even in times of great hardship - truly capturing history's essence within its lines and shadows.
