EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Katherine MacFee transports us back in time to the enchanting ruins of Waverley Abbey in Farnham, Surrey. The image captures a serene view of the lay brothers quarters from the north-west, revealing nature's resilience as trees and foliage gracefully intertwine with the ancient stone walls. Once a thriving Cistercian monastery during medieval times, Waverley Abbey now stands as an evocative ruin that whispers tales of its glorious past. The photograph beautifully encapsulates the sense of tranquility and mystery that permeates these historic grounds. The play of light and shadow adds depth to this composition, casting an ethereal glow upon weathered stones. It is impossible not to be captivated by the intricate details etched into each crumbling archway and worn staircase. As we gaze at this scene frozen in time, we are reminded of both human ingenuity and nature's inexorable march forward. Katherine MacFee's skillful lens has expertly captured a moment where history meets nature; where man-made structures surrender to Mother Earth's persistent embrace. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder that even amidst decay, beauty can still be found - reminding us to cherish our own fleeting existence while honoring those who came before us. Through her lens, MacFee invites us on a visual journey through centuries past - inviting contemplation on themes such as impermanence, legacy, and the enduring power of nature.
