EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the timeless allure of Landguard Fort, nestled in the picturesque town of Felixstowe, Suffolk. Stepping into this historic landmark feels like stepping back in time, and this interior view perfectly encapsulates its rich heritage. Through a majestic archway, our gaze is drawn towards the magnificent bell and clock mechanism housed within the gatehouse. The intricate details of these ancient timekeepers are beautifully showcased against the weathered stone walls that have witnessed centuries of history unfold. The juxtaposition between old and new is palpable in this image. The clock's hands continue to tick away as they have done for generations, while modern life carries on outside these sturdy fortifications. It serves as a reminder that even amidst constant change, some things remain steadfastly rooted in tradition. Alun Bull's expert eye has skillfully captured not only the physical elements but also an intangible sense of nostalgia and reverence for times gone by. This photograph invites us to reflect on our own place within history and appreciate how architecture can serve as a testament to human ingenuity across different eras. Landguard Fort K060513 stands proudly as a symbol of resilience and endurance throughout the ages—a silent witness to countless stories waiting to be discovered by those who venture inside its hallowed halls.
