15th Century Chapel Cornwall Rock Outcrop Roche
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Peter Barritt showcases the haunting beauty of the ruined chapel of St. Michael, which dates back to 1409. Perched on the Roche rock outcrop in Cornwall, England, this ancient structure stands as a testament to centuries gone by. The image captures a scene that is both serene and mysterious. The cloudy sky adds an air of melancholy to the already crumbling ruins, creating a sense of timelessness. Against this backdrop, one person can be seen standing near the chapel, their presence emphasizing the scale and grandeur of this architectural marvel. The landscape surrounding the chapel is nothing short of breathtaking. The rugged rocks jutting out from beneath it create a dramatic contrast against nature's elements. This place of worship has witnessed countless storms and weathered them all with resilience. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back in time to the 15th century when this chapel was once alive with prayers and religious devotion. It serves as a reminder that even in ruin, there is still beauty to be found. Peter Barritt's photography skillfully captures not only the physicality but also the spiritual essence that lingers within these ancient walls. This image invites us to contemplate our own connection with history and reminds us that even amidst decay, there is always something worth preserving.
