EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the late 19th century, capturing the majestic beauty of Kirkstall Abbey in England. The artist behind this masterpiece is Alexander Francis Lydon, who skillfully portrays the architectural grandeur and religious significance of this historical site. Set against a backdrop of vibrant yellow hues, the ruins of Kirkstall Abbey stand proudly on the riverbank of River Aire in West Yorkshire. The abbey's disrepair only adds to its charm, as it showcases centuries-old remains that have withstood the test of time. In this scene, we see a group of people admiring the abbey's magnificence. Among them are men and women engrossed in conversation while flipping through a book about British literature and geography. Their presence highlights how Kirkstall Abbey continues to captivate individuals from all walks of life. The abbey itself holds deep religious significance as it was once home to Cistercian monks during the 12th century. Its rich history intertwines with Christianity and serves as a testament to Britain's cultural heritage. Thanks to Frederick Ross' publication "The Ruined Abbeys of Britain" which features this artwork by Lydon, we can now appreciate and preserve these precious glimpses into our past. This print not only captures an architectural marvel but also invites us to reflect on our connection with history and spirituality.
