EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the magnificent Great Hall of Eltham Palace, located in London. As we gaze upon this stunning interior view, our eyes are immediately drawn to the intricate detail of the hammerbeam roof that adorns the hall. The craftsmanship and artistry displayed in this medieval Tudor masterpiece is truly awe-inspiring. The photograph beautifully captures not only the grandeur of the space but also highlights its unique features. The oblique angle allows us to appreciate both the timber structure and the exquisite stained glass windows that bathe the hall in a warm, ethereal glow. The combination of these elements creates an atmosphere that is both regal and inviting. Eltham Palace stands as a testament to England's rich history and architectural heritage. It serves as a reminder of a bygone era when kings and queens once graced these halls with their presence. This image invites us to imagine what life was like during those times – feasts held beneath this very roof, important discussions taking place within these walls. Derek Kendall's skillful photography has captured not just an image but also a sense of wonderment and reverence for this remarkable piece of history. It reminds us how fortunate we are to have such treasures preserved for future generations to admire and cherish.
