EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the medieval era, offering a glimpse into the fascinating world of Glastonbury Abbey's Abbots Kitchen. Taken by Walter Edward Zehetmayr, this stereoscopic view captures the essence of this historical site located in Glastonbury, Mendip, Somerset. The image showcases the impressive architecture and intricate details of the abbey's kitchen, which served as a vital hub for culinary activities within the monastery. The stone walls exude an aura of ancient wisdom and resilience that has withstood centuries of change. As we peer through our own lens into history, we can almost hear the sounds and smell the aromas emanating from this bustling kitchen. It was here that monks dedicated their days to preparing nourishing meals for themselves and their fellow brethren. Zehetmayr's skillful composition allows us to appreciate both the grandeur and functionality of this space. From large cauldrons suspended over open fires to meticulously arranged utensils on wooden shelves, every element tells a story about monastic life during medieval times. This stereo card not only serves as a visual delight but also invites contemplation on themes such as monasticism, cooking traditions passed down through generations, and how these spaces shaped daily life within religious communities. Through Zehetmayr's lens, we are transported across time to witness firsthand one small fragment of England's rich heritage at Glastonbury Abbey - an experience that leaves us yearning for more glimpses
