EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the solemn beauty of the World War Two Naval memorial on Southsea seafront in Portsmouth, England. Designed by the renowned architect Sir Edmund Maufe and adorned with a striking sculpture by William McMillan, this memorial pays homage to the brave Royal Marine Commandos who served during that tumultuous time. Standing tall against the backdrop of the picturesque seaside resort, this monument stands as a testament to both history and art. Its intricate architecture reflects the resilience and strength of those who fought for their country's freedom. The naval elements incorporated into its design serve as a poignant reminder of Portsmouth's rich maritime heritage. As we gaze upon this image, our minds are transported back to an era when these shores were bustling with military activity. The sailor depicted in McMillan's sculpture embodies courage and determination, while also representing all servicemen who selflessly dedicated themselves to protecting their nation. Intriguingly framed by Paul Seheult's lens, this photograph not only showcases architectural brilliance but also evokes emotions tied to sacrifice and remembrance. It serves as a powerful reminder that even amidst holiday destinations and vacation spots, there lies a deep-rooted history waiting to be explored.
