EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the timeless beauty of Tintern Abbey in Wales. Originally established by Cistercian monks in 1131 AD, during the reign of Henry I, this abbey flourished as a spiritual haven for centuries. The period between 1270 and 1301 witnessed an ambitious rebuilding project that transformed the complex into a magnificent sanctuary where around four hundred monks resided. However, like many other religious institutions, Tintern Abbey faced its demise with the dissolution of monasteries under Henry VIII. Today, all that remains are hauntingly beautiful ruins nestled between the gentle flow of River Wye and the A466 road at the southern end of Tintern village. Surrounded by lush hills adorned with ever-changing woods that paint a vivid tapestry with each passing season, this sacred site basks in nature's splendor. As sunlight cascades down the Angiddy valley, it illuminates every nook and cranny of this historic landmark. Lynda Morris Photography has masterfully captured this ethereal scene in her exquisite artwork. This print is not just a visual delight but also serves as a poignant reminder of our rich heritage and how time can transform even grand structures into poetic remnants. Displaying this piece will transport you to an era long gone while celebrating both nature's resilience and human craftsmanship. Let yourself be enchanted by Tintern Abbey's allure through Lynda Morris' lens; immerse yourself in history and marvel at its enduring charm.
