EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the enchanting Beleigh Abbey, near Maldon, Essex. Engraved by Charles Mottram in 1832, this piece beautifully captures the essence of this historic monastery. Originally constructed in 1180 for the White Canons, Beeleigh Abbey stands as a testament to centuries of history and spirituality. The intricate details etched by Mottram bring forth a sense of grandeur and tranquility that once graced these hallowed grounds. The image showcases the abbey amidst its picturesque surroundings—a country house nestled amidst lush greenery with a serene pond reflecting its dilapidated beauty. It is evident that time has taken its toll on this architectural marvel, yet it still exudes an undeniable charm. Notably, this engraving was acquired by William Foyle, renowned owner of Foyles bookshop, in 1943. Its inclusion within his private collection speaks volumes about the significance and allure of Beleigh Abbey. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork today, we are transported to a different era—a glimpse into the past where faith met architecture in perfect harmony. This print serves as both a reminder of our rich heritage and an invitation to explore further into the mysteries held within Beleigh Abbey's ancient walls.
