EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the ancient Wroxeter Roman City, located in Shropshire. Created by the talented artist Ivan Lapper, this reconstruction drawing vividly portrays the baths complex as it might have looked during the 5th century, long after its abandonment. The scene is set amidst a wintry landscape, with snow covering the ground and cold winds blowing through the timber-framed buildings. The attention to detail in this graphic artwork is truly remarkable. It showcases how large structures were constructed on and around the remains of this once-thriving Roman city well into post-Roman times. The artist's skillful rendering transports us back to an era where bustling bathhouses were at their prime. As we gaze upon this image, our imagination runs wild with thoughts of what life was like for those who lived within these walls centuries ago. We can almost hear echoes of conversations and laughter that once filled these halls, now silenced by time. This print serves as a poignant reminder of our rich history and heritage. It allows us to appreciate both the architectural marvels left behind by our ancestors and their resilience in adapting these structures for future generations. Let it inspire you to explore more about Wroxeter Roman City and delve deeper into its fascinating story frozen in time.
