EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a collection of antiquities unearthed in Crock-field near Newington, Kent, during the 18th century. The image is derived from an engraving by Richard Bernard Godfrey, featured in Edward Hasted's renowned publication "The History and Topographical Survey of the County of Kent". In this snapshot of history, we are transported to a time when archaeology was still in its infancy. The photograph captures various earthenware vessels and containers that once held wine or other alcoholic beverages. Each artifact tells a story of ancient rituals and social gatherings. The meticulous etching highlights the intricate details on these artifacts – jugs, pots, urns – showcasing their craftsmanship and cultural significance. These objects offer us a glimpse into the past; they serve as tangible links to our ancestors' lives. Preserved within the Metropolitan Museum of Art's archives, this print invites us to appreciate not only the historical value but also the artistic merit captured by Godfrey's skilled hand. It reminds us that art can transcend time itself. As we gaze upon this monochromatic masterpiece, we are reminded of how far humanity has come while simultaneously acknowledging our deep-rooted connection to those who came before us.
