EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the era of Roman soldiers guarding Hadrian's Wall. The reconstruction line drawing, skillfully created by Philip Corke between 1985 and 2000, captures the essence of these brave warriors diligently watching over the frontier. The attention to detail is remarkable as each soldier stands tall in their armor, ready to defend against any potential threat. Their shields held firmly, weapons at the ready, they exude a sense of strength and determination. The artist's meticulous illustration brings life to this historical scene. Located at Denton Hall Turret (7b) in Newcastle upon Tyne, this artwork pays homage to the rich military history that once thrived along Hadrian's Wall. It serves as a reminder of the strategic importance of this ancient fortification and its significance in protecting Roman territory. Through this image, we are transported into a world where soldiers stood guard day and night on one of Britain's most iconic landmarks. We can almost feel their presence as they keep watch over the vast frontier. Philip Corke has masterfully captured not only an accurate representation but also a glimpse into the lives of these valiant soldiers who dedicated themselves to maintaining peace and security along Hadrian's Wall. This print is truly a testament to both his artistic talent and his deep appreciation for history.
