EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Brough Castle, located in Cumbria, as seen from the South. With its rich history and stunning architecture, this medieval fortress stands proudly amidst a picturesque landscape of rural beauty and sprawling moorland. The image captures the essence of both strength and serenity, with the castle's imposing structure juxtaposed against the tranquil surroundings. Brough Castle is steeped in tales of defense and fortification, serving as a testament to centuries gone by. Its weathered ruins tell stories of battles fought and lives lived within its walls. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time to an era where knights roamed these lands and chivalry was revered. The photographer Alun Bull has skillfully captured not just a mere building but also a piece of living history frozen in time. The composition allows us to appreciate every intricate detail – from the crumbling stone walls to the majestic towers that once stood tall against any threat. This print serves as a reminder that even though time may have taken its toll on Brough Castle, it remains an awe-inspiring sight for all who visit or admire it through images like this one. It invites us to reflect on our own place within history's tapestry while appreciating the enduring beauty found within ancient ruins such as these.
