Arundel Castle and Town, 1845. Creator: Unknown
Arundel Castle and Town, 1845. View of the medieval castle at Arundel in West Sussex. The Castle stands high, upon a circular knoll, partly artificial, and commands an extensive prospect over the low flat country towards the sea, as far as the Isle of Wight. It has been supposed that the sea once washed the Castle walls, as anchors and other marine implements have been found near it. From " Illustrated London News", 1845, Vol VII

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1845, offering a glimpse into the enchanting world of Arundel Castle and Town. The medieval castle, standing proudly atop a circular knoll, dominates the landscape of West Sussex in England. Its strategic position grants it an unparalleled view over the surrounding low flat country that stretches all the way to the sparkling waters of the Isle of Wight. The image evokes a sense of mystery as we learn that anchors and other maritime artifacts have been discovered near its walls, suggesting that once upon a time, this majestic fortress may have been kissed by sea waves. This intriguing detail adds another layer to Arundel Castle's rich history. The engraving captures not only the grandeur of this architectural marvel but also showcases rural life in 19th-century Britain. A group of cows peacefully grazing on nearby hills serves as a reminder that amidst fortifications and regionalism, nature continues its timeless rhythm. Published in "Illustrated London News" this print transports us back to an era when newspapers were cherished sources for discovering new places and expanding one's horizons through travel imagery. It invites viewers to embark on their own mental journey through time and space while admiring this remarkable tourist attraction. Although created by an unknown artist, this photograph stands as a testament to Victorian craftsmanship and artistic sensibilities. Preserved by Heritage Images, it allows us today to appreciate both historical significance and aesthetic beauty encapsulated within Arundel Castle's ancient walls.
