EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the timeless beauty of St Mary's Church, located in the charming village of Kempley, Gloucestershire. Stepping into this medieval sanctuary feels like stepping back in time, and Peter Williams' photograph perfectly encapsulates its historic essence. The focus of the image is on the chancel arch, which stands proudly at the western end of the church. Its intricate design and exquisite craftsmanship are a testament to the skill and dedication of those who built it centuries ago. The archway serves as a gateway between earthly realms and spiritual transcendence, inviting visitors to explore its secrets. Williams' expert composition allows us to appreciate not only the architectural details but also how light dances through stained glass windows, casting vibrant hues upon ancient stone walls. It is evident that every corner holds stories waiting to be discovered. This photograph was taken in 2010 but effortlessly transports us back through time. It reminds us of our connection with history and encourages contemplation within these hallowed walls. St Mary's Church stands as a testament to human creativity and devotion throughout generations. Peter Williams has masterfully captured both grandeur and intimacy within this single frame, offering viewers an opportunity to immerse themselves in the rich heritage preserved within St Mary's Church for centuries past - an invitation we cannot resist accepting.
