EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the enchanting St. Osyths, Essex in 1856. Created by the talented photographer Alfred Capel-Cure, this image beautifully captures the essence of this historic abbey. The architectural grandeur of the 12th-century entrance gatehouse is showcased in stunning detail, with its castellated walls standing tall against a picturesque landscape. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are reminded of the rich heritage and deep-rooted Christian history that permeates every inch of St. Osyths Abbey. The intricate windows adorn the structure, allowing glimpses into a world steeped in religious devotion and spiritual contemplation. Alfred Capel-Cure's masterful use of photography adds an ethereal quality to this scene, emphasizing both the timelessness and fragility of our human creations. Through his lens, he invites us to reflect on centuries past while appreciating their enduring beauty. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art as part of their esteemed collection, this panoramic view serves as a testament to Capel-Cure's artistic prowess and dedication to preserving cultural treasures through his lens. With each glance at this remarkable piece, we are transported not only to St. Osyths but also into an era where faith intertwined seamlessly with architecture—a visual reminder that our past continues to shape our present-day existence.
