EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the solemn beauty of the Windsor Memorial Cross, standing tall in the churchyard of the Church of St Laurence in Bromsgrove, Worcestershire. A true testament to Victorian craftsmanship and architectural prowess, this memorial was designed by William Butterfield in his signature Gothic Revival style. The cross itself is a striking feature with its intricate quatrefoil design and imposing presence. It stands as a symbol of remembrance and reverence for those who have passed on. The steps leading up to it invite visitors to pause and reflect upon life's fleeting nature, while the surrounding trees provide a serene backdrop that adds an element of tranquility to this sacred space. David Molyneux's expertly captured photograph highlights every detail with precision, showcasing not only the grandeur of the memorial but also its integration within its natural surroundings. The play between light and shadow further enhances the ethereal atmosphere evoked by this scene. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of our own mortality and encouraged to contemplate life's impermanence. This print serves as a poignant reminder that death is an inevitable part of our human journey – one that should be acknowledged with grace and dignity. With David Molyneux's skillful lens capturing both architectural mastery and emotional depth, this photograph invites us into a world where history converges with artistry – reminding us all that even in death there can be profound beauty.
