EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Andrew Shaylor, we are transported back in time to the magnificent Audley End House in Essex. The image captures a mesmerizing scene as a re-enactor, meticulously dressed as the stable master of yesteryears, guides a majestic horse towards the grandeur of the house. The atmosphere is shrouded in darkness, adding an air of mystery and intrigue to the photograph. It seems as though we have stumbled upon a secret moment unfolding under the moonlit sky. The dim lighting casts long shadows on the ground, enhancing both the historical ambiance and our curiosity about what lies beyond. This snapshot beautifully encapsulates elements from Stuart-era England, evoking memories of an era steeped in tradition and aristocratic splendor. The re-enactor's attire reflects meticulous attention to detail while paying homage to centuries-old equestrian customs. The horse itself becomes an integral part of this enchanting composition. Its powerful presence exudes strength and grace against Audley End House's imposing silhouette. As it obediently follows its trusted guide towards destiny unknown, one can't help but wonder about their shared history within these hallowed grounds. Andrew Shaylor has skillfully captured not just a single moment frozen in time but also invites us into a world where past meets present through his lens. This extraordinary photograph serves as a reminder that history lives on through dedicated preservation efforts like those undertaken by Historic England
