EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Nunnery at Little Gidding in Huntingdonshire, captured through an exquisite engraving by an anonymous English School artist from the 19th century. The image, part of a private collection, transports us back to the year 1641 when this serene nunnery stood as a symbol of tranquility and devotion. Originally published as an illustration for Mason Jackson's book "The Pictorial Press its Origins and Progress" in 1885, this digitally cleaned woodcut offers a glimpse into early journalism and the power of newspapers during that era. It serves as a testament to the influence of pictorial press in disseminating information to wider audiences. The Nunnery at Little Gidding itself is beautifully depicted with intricate details that highlight its architectural grandeur. Surrounded by lush greenery, it exudes an air of serenity and spirituality. This image not only captures the essence of this historical landmark but also provides insight into life during that period. With references to magazines, woodcuts, newspapers, and illustrated papers, this print reminds us of the rich history behind journalism and how visual storytelling has played a significant role throughout time. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece from Fine Art Finder's collection for all art enthusiasts to appreciate and delve into our past through their lens.
