EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by James O. Davies transports us back in time to the enchanting Church of St Cassian, nestled in the picturesque village of Chaddersley Corbett, Worcestershire. The focal point of this image is the exquisite Norman font, dating back to 1160-70, which stands as a testament to the rich medieval heritage that still resonates within these ancient walls. The intricate stone sculpture adorning this font showcases remarkable craftsmanship and attention to detail. Every curve and crevice tells a story of devotion and artistic skill from centuries past. Its decorative motifs evoke a sense of awe and wonder, inviting us to explore its intricacies further. Through this photograph, we are invited into an intimate encounter with history itself. We can almost feel the weight of time as we gaze upon this magnificent piece of ecclesiastical artistry. It serves as a reminder that even amidst our fast-paced modern world, there are places where time seems suspended – where tradition and beauty converge. James O. Davies has masterfully captured not only the physicality but also the essence of this historical treasure through his lens. His keen eye for composition allows us to appreciate every delicate feature while preserving its authenticity. As we admire this print from Historic England, let it serve as an invitation for exploration – both within ourselves and in our surroundings – reminding us that hidden gems like these await discovery just beyond our everyday lives.
