EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: Monks in Quiet Contemplation: Tending the Gardens at Mount St Bernards Abbey, Leicestershire Mount St Bernards Abbey, nestled in the picturesque countryside of Leicestershire, England, is a place where history and tranquility intertwine. In this evocative photograph, we witness a scene of monastic life unfolding in the abbey's lush gardens. The monks, dressed in their traditional habits, work together in perfect harmony, their cowls creating a striking contrast against the vibrant greens of the foliage. The image captures the essence of the monastic way of life, where many hands make light work. The monks' dedication to their daily tasks is evident as they tend to the various patches in the garden, each with a focused determination. The greenhouse in the background stands as a testament to their commitment to self-sufficiency, providing an ideal environment for nurturing plants and vegetables. Mount St Bernards Abbey, founded in 1852, is steeped in history. Its stunning Gothic Revival architecture, inspired by the great monasteries of Europe, stands proudly amidst the rolling hills of Leicestershire. The abbey's gardens, much like the monks themselves, are a living testament to the rich heritage and traditions that have endured for over a century and a half. This photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of the monks, their quiet dedication to their work, and their deep connection to the land and the natural world. It is a poignant reminder of the simple pleasures and enduring values that have shaped the monastic way of life for generations.
