EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, we are transported back to the year 1947 in Newcastle upon Tyne. The image showcases a momentous occasion - the creation of the replacement head for Greys Monument. Standing tall and proud, this iconic statue has long been a symbol of the city's rich history and heritage. At its base stands a mature man, his weathered face reflecting years of dedication to his craft. With chisel in hand and pipe gently clenched between his teeth, he epitomizes the skilled stonemason at work. His hands move with precision as he delicately carves every intricate detail into the stone, ensuring that each stroke breathes life into this magnificent monument. The significance of this photo lies not only in capturing a historic event but also in immortalizing an art form that is often overlooked - stonemasonry. It serves as a reminder of the craftsmanship and skill required to create such enduring works of art. As we gaze upon this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are reminded of our connection to the past and how these monuments continue to shape our present-day landscape. This photograph transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate both the beauty of Greys Monument itself and those who dedicated their lives to preserving it for generations to come.
