EDITORS COMMENTS
This haunting image captures the solemn beauty of a truly remarkable discovery - the coffin of a daughter of King Canute, unearthed at Bosham Church in Sussex on 4 August 1865. The ancient and medieval origins of this find are evident in the weathered stone and intricate carvings that adorn the coffin, hinting at a long-forgotten era steeped in history and tradition.
The skeletal remains within serve as a poignant reminder of the inevitability of death, transcending time to connect us with our ancestors who once walked this earth. The bones tell a silent story of a life lived centuries ago, now laid to rest in this sacred place.
As we gaze upon this relic from another age, we are transported back to Victorian times when such discoveries captivated imaginations and sparked curiosity about England's rich past. The meticulous detail captured by Terry Parker's lens allows us to study every curve and crevice of this ancient artifact, inviting us to ponder its significance and reflect on our own mortality.
In an age where technology reigns supreme, it is humbling to be confronted with something so primal and elemental as death itself. This photograph serves as a powerful memento mori, urging us to cherish each moment we have on this earth before joining those who came before us in eternal slumber.
