EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable Maiden Castle, a Roman Temple nestled within an Iron Age hill fort in 4th century England. The image captures the essence of rural life during this era, with its rustic landscape and ancient fortification standing proudly against the horizon. The temple itself stands as a testament to the intersection of religion and history, symbolizing the cultural exchange between two distinct periods. Its square shape and solid construction evoke a sense of strength and permanence, while also hinting at the religious significance it held for those who worshipped here centuries ago. The color palette used in this photograph adds depth and vibrancy to every detail captured by CM Dixon's lens. From the lush greenery surrounding Maiden Castle to the weathered stones that make up its walls, each element is brought to life through vivid hues. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time - imagining what daily life might have been like within these ancient walls. It serves as a reminder of our rich heritage and invites us to reflect on how our understanding of history continues to evolve with each new discovery.
