EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Lottie Davies captures the enchanting essence of Clifford's Tower, located in York, North Yorkshire. Bathed in a floodlit glow against the dark backdrop of dusk, this medieval fortification stands tall and proud, evoking a sense of awe and wonder. The moon gracefully hangs in the sky above, casting its ethereal light upon the ancient tower. Clifford's Tower is an iconic landmark that transports us back to a time long ago when it served as a formidable stronghold. Its imposing presence atop a motte showcases both its strategic significance and architectural grandeur. As we gaze at this photograph, we can almost hear echoes from centuries past whispering tales of battles fought and victories won within these very walls. The earthwork surrounding the tower adds another layer of intrigue to this scene. It serves as a reminder that Clifford's Tower was not just an isolated structure but part of a larger defensive system designed to protect those within its walls. Lottie Davies' masterful composition skillfully captures all these elements under the cover of night. Her lens reveals details often unseen during daylight hours, allowing us to appreciate the intricate beauty hidden within this historical gem. In summary, this print offers viewers an exquisite glimpse into Clifford's Tower - an emblematic symbol of York's rich heritage and medieval splendor illuminated by moonlight on a tranquil evening.
