EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the summer of 1935, offering a glimpse into the enchanting ruins of Kenilworth Castle in Warwickshire. Standing proudly since its establishment in the 1120s, this magnificent castle has witnessed centuries of history and undergone numerous fortifications by kings, queens, and nobles.

In 1563, Queen Elizabeth bestowed this majestic fortress upon Robert Dudley, known as the Earl of Leicester. With his remarkable vision and creativity, he transformed these ancient ruins into an opulent palace fit for royalty. As we gaze upon this photograph from nearly a century ago, we can almost imagine ourselves transported to those lavish apartments where Queen Elizabeth herself was entertained by her loyal subject. The remnants of past glory are evident in every stone and archway captured here.
