EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the ancient ruins of Old Sarum, Wiltshire. The image showcases a remarkable reconstruction drawing by Peter Dunn, a talented member of the English Heritage Graphics Team. Standing proudly at the forefront is the gatehouse entrance to the inner bailey, dating all the way back to 1140. The intricate details captured in this graphic illustration are truly awe-inspiring. Every stroke and line meticulously brings to life an era long gone but not forgotten. As we gaze upon this scene, we can almost hear the echoes of hooves hitting cobblestones and feel the presence of Norman soldiers guarding their fortress. At first glance, our attention is drawn towards a noble knight atop his majestic steed, exuding strength and valor. His loyal companion - a faithful dog - stands faithfully beside him as they prepare for another day within these historic walls. The gatehouse itself stands as a testament to architectural brilliance; its imposing structure symbolizing power and protection. Its weathered stone walls tell tales of countless battles fought and won throughout history. Through this photo print, Peter Dunn has masterfully captured both artistry and history in one frame. It serves as a reminder that even though time may pass us by, there will always be glimpses into our past that continue to inspire wonderment and ignite curiosity about those who came before us.
