EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Sidlesham, 1835", takes us back to a bygone era in the charming village of Sidlesham near Chichester. The image showcases the magnificent St Mary Our Lady Church, which underwent repairs under the watchful eye of Rev Edward Goddard in 1836. Created by Charles John Smith, an accomplished engraver of his time, this antique engraving exudes a sense of history and antiquity. It was featured in Thomas Walker Horsfield's renowned book "The History, Antiquities, and Topography of the County of Sussex" published in 1835. The church facade stands proudly against the backdrop of a serene countryside landscape. Its architectural beauty is evident even in monochrome as intricate details are etched onto each stone. The gravestones scattered across the churchyard remind us of lives lived long ago and evoke thoughts on mortality and spirituality. This image not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to England's rich religious heritage. It transports us to an era when churches were at the heart of communities, providing solace and guidance to its inhabitants. Through this photograph print by Charles John Smith from Heritage Images collection, we can appreciate both the artistic skill involved in capturing such scenes through engravings as well as gain insight into historical architecture and cultural significance that shaped our past.
