EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1898, showcasing the majestic Tewkesbury Abbey in all its glory. The creator of this remarkable image remains unknown, but their talent for capturing architectural beauty is undeniable. Tewkesbury Abbey, a former Benedictine monastery located in Gloucestershire, England, stands tall with its Romanesque crossing tower restored by the renowned George Gilbert Scott during the late 19th century. The photograph was featured in "Our Own Country, Volume II" a literary masterpiece published by Cassell and Company Ltd. It transports us to a time when books were cherished treasures that allowed people to explore different places and eras from the comfort of their own homes. In this particular scene, we see a young boy engrossed in his reading while sitting near one of the abbey's gravestones. The juxtaposition between life and death is striking as he immerses himself in literature amidst an ancient graveyard. This image evokes thoughts on religion, history, and mortality. The intricate details of Tewkesbury Abbey's architecture are beautifully captured through engravings on this print. Its Norman influences stand out against the backdrop of British countryside charm. Although we may not know who took this photograph or why it was taken specifically at this moment in time, it serves as a powerful reminder of our connection to both past and present – where artistry meets spirituality within these hallowed walls.
