EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable Vindolanda Letters, dating back to AD 92-120. The image transports us to the ancient Roman auxiliary fort of Vindolanda, nestled just south of Hadrian's Wall in northern England. This historical site predates the famous wall and is renowned for its extraordinary discoveries, particularly the Vindolanda tablets. These wooden tablets contain a treasure trove of military and private correspondence, making them one of the most significant finds in all of Roman Empire archaeology. The photograph beautifully captures the essence of this archaeological marvel. The vibrant colors bring life to the aged artifacts as they rest against a backdrop that hints at their rich history. Each letter represents a fragment from an era long gone but preserved with meticulous care. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported through time and space, imagining ourselves standing within those ancient walls where soldiers once walked and corresponded with loved ones far away. The handwriting on these tablets tells stories untold for centuries – tales of battles fought, personal triumphs and tribulations, hopes shared across distances. This photograph serves as a testament to our human desire to connect with our past and understand those who came before us. It reminds us that even in fragments, history has much to teach us about our own existence today.
