EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the West Front of Tintern Abbey, a remarkable testament to history and architectural grandeur. Located in Monmouthshire, Wales, this abbey was established in 1131 along the picturesque River Wye, serving as a significant boundary between Wales and England. The ruins depicted here are an amalgamation of structures dating back to its foundation until their dissolution in 1538. Taken from "Picturesque Europe - The British Isles" published by Cassell Petter & Galpin in 1875, this monochrome engraved image exudes an air of antiquity and obsolete charm. It transports us back to the Norman style prevalent during the medieval era when Henry VIII ruled over England. The image beautifully captures the essence of Tintern Abbey's gothic and classical styles amidst its ruined state. Overgrown with vegetation and surrounded by a vegetable garden, it evokes a sense of spirituality intertwined with nature. This engraving offers us a glimpse into Welsh culture while also representing British heritage. As we gaze at this old-fashioned masterpiece, we can't help but appreciate how it reflects both social history and religious significance. With its rural backdrop against the scenic landscape of Wales, this vertical composition draws our attention towards intricate details such as gables and windows that once adorned this majestic monastery. In summary, Whitemay's exquisite print encapsulates not only the beauty but also the historical value embedded within Tintern Abbey—a true travel destination for those seeking to immerse themselves in centuries-old architecture and explore Britain's rich cultural tapestry.
