EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by James O. Davies transports us to the ancient and mysterious Merrivale Prehistoric Settlement, nestled in the heart of Dartmoor, Devon. The image captures a mesmerizing general view of a stone row avenue against an overcast sky, creating an atmosphere that is both haunting and awe-inspiring. The dark and rural landscape stretches out before us, with vast moorlands shrouded in clouds adding an air of mystique to this prehistoric site. The stones stand tall and proud, bearing witness to centuries gone by and offering a glimpse into the lives of our ancestors. As we gaze upon this remarkable scene, we are reminded of the enduring power and resilience of human history. These weathered stones tell stories untold; they hold secrets waiting to be unraveled by curious minds. James O. Davies has masterfully captured not only the physical beauty but also the intangible sense of wonder that surrounds Merrivale Prehistoric Settlement. Through his lens, he invites us to contemplate our place within time's grand tapestry while immersing ourselves in the rich heritage preserved within these ancient stones. This print serves as a poignant reminder that even amidst modernity's hustle and bustle, there are places where one can find solace in connecting with our primordial past – where nature meets history on Dartmoor's windswept plains.
