EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Derwent Water and Skiddaw DIX02_01_061" takes us back to the picturesque landscape of Ashness Bridge in Borrowdale, Allerdale, Cumbria during the 1930s. The view captured here is nothing short of breathtaking as it showcases the stunning beauty of Derwent Water and Skiddaw against a backdrop of dramatic fells and mountains. The image transports us to a time when this rural landscape was frequented by tourists and sightseers eager to witness the natural wonders that make up the Lake District. The packhorse bridge featured in the foreground adds a touch of Georgian charm to an already idyllic scene. Every detail within this photograph exudes tranquility and serenity. From the calm waters of Derwent Water reflecting its surroundings with pristine clarity, to the majestic peaks of Skiddaw standing tall against an expansive sky - it is impossible not to be captivated by nature's grandeur. J Dixon Scott has masterfully captured this moment in time, allowing us a glimpse into an era where untouched beauty reigned supreme.
