EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the bustling Preston Docks in Lancashire, sometime after 1945. Standing tall against the horizon are the magnificent Victoria Warehouses, a true testament to Victorian architecture and industrial prowess. Eric de Mare's expertly captured exterior perspective view allows us to admire the grandeur of these historic warehouses. The sheer size and intricate detailing of their design is awe-inspiring, showcasing the craftsmanship that went into constructing such monumental structures. The photograph exudes a sense of nostalgia as we imagine the hustle and bustle that once filled these now silent halls. It invites us to ponder upon the countless stories held within those walls - tales of trade, commerce, and hardworking individuals who played their part in shaping Preston's maritime history. As we gaze at this remarkable image, it becomes evident why Historic England has chosen to preserve this piece of architectural heritage. The Victoria Warehouses stand as a reminder of an era long gone but not forgotten; they symbolize both progress and tradition. Eric de Mare's skillful composition captures every detail with precision - from the ornate brickwork to the symmetrical windows adorning each floor. This print serves as a visual tribute to an important chapter in Lancashire's past while also igniting our curiosity about what lies beyond its frame.
