EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the entrance gate of Cowdray House, a magnificent Tudor-style mansion located near Midhurst, West Sussex. The image dates back to approximately 1935, capturing the grandeur and history of this 16th century architectural gem before it fell victim to a devastating fire in 1793. The photograph showcases the intricate details of the entrance gate, which stands as a testament to the craftsmanship and elegance of its era. Despite being devoid of people, there is an undeniable sense of life within these ruins. The weathered stone walls tell stories that have withstood the test of time. The monochromatic palette adds depth and texture to the image while emphasizing both light and shadow. It transports us into a bygone era where we can almost hear echoes from centuries past whispering through these ancient stones. As we gaze upon this hauntingly beautiful scene, we are reminded that even in ruin, beauty persists. This photograph captures not only a moment frozen in time but also serves as a poignant reminder that history leaves its mark on everything it touches - including our own lives.
