EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the ancient Roman town of Wintringham on a summer day in July 1724. The image, titled "Scite Roman town Wintringham 24 July 1724 Abontrus" is part of the renowned Liszt Collection and was originally featured in William Stukeley's book, "Itinerarium curiosum: or, An account of the antiquities, and remarkable curiosities in nature or art, observed in travels through Great Britain". The engraving beautifully captures the essence of this historic site with intricate details etched onto copper plate number 61. As we gaze upon it, we are transported to a bygone era where bustling streets once echoed with the footsteps of Romans going about their daily lives. Wintringham's rich history comes alive through this image – its ancient buildings standing proudly against a backdrop of lush greenery. We can almost imagine the vibrant market stalls that once lined these streets and hear snippets of conversations from long ago. Stukeley's meticulous observations during his travels have allowed us to glimpse into this fascinating world. Through his work, he has preserved not only architectural wonders but also remarkable curiosities found within nature and art throughout Great Britain. As we admire this print from afar, let us appreciate its historical significance and marvel at how it connects us to our past. It serves as a reminder that even centuries later, our curiosity for exploration remains unyielding.
