EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate details of a cornice in Woodsome Hall, located in Kirkburton, Kirklees. The hall, once a grand house and now serving as a golf club house, was constructed over several stages for the esteemed Kaye family between the 16th and 17th centuries. With its two storeys and main hall range facing east, complemented by a north cross wing, this architectural marvel also features enclosed ranges that form a charming courtyard at the rear. The focal point of this image is undoubtedly the mesmerizing plasterwork adorning the cornice. Delicately crafted dragons and mermen come to life through skilled artistry, bringing an air of mystique to this historic setting. These mythical creatures seem to dance along the repeating pattern on the cornice's surface, adding an enchanting touch to every corner of this first-floor chamber. Photographer George Bernard Wood has expertly captured both the grandeur and intricacy of these elements within Woodsome Hall. This photograph serves as a testament to not only England's rich history but also highlights how architecture can seamlessly blend with mythology to create timeless beauty.
