EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Burnham Deepdale font at St Mary's Church in Norfolk. Dating back to the 12th century, this square font is adorned with intricate carvings depicting various labours of the months. The font bowl sits gracefully on four short piers and a square base, both added during the 19th century. In this detailed shot, we can admire two sides of the bowl, each featuring four arches with unique depictions of different labours of the month. While two scenes clearly portray threshing and binding a sheaf, deciphering the others proves to be more challenging. The craftsmanship displayed in this medieval Norman Romanesque sculpture is truly remarkable. Every curve and line tells a story from centuries ago, transporting us back in time to an era filled with devotion and artistic expression. E M Booty has skillfully captured every nuance of this historic treasure through their lens. This print not only serves as a visual delight but also acts as a testament to our rich cultural heritage. Let us cherish these glimpses into our past that remind us of how artistry transcends time and connects generations across centuries.
