EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Douglas Fairbank LRPS showcases the remarkable remains of Verulamium, located in St Albans, Hertfordshire. Once the third largest city and the only municipium in Roman Britain, this archaeological site holds immense historical significance. The image captures a mesmerizing scene of ancient ruins and fragments that have withstood the test of time. The photograph beautifully portrays the remnants of Verulamium's city wall, constructed with sturdy flint rubble. These weathered stones tell stories from a bygone era, transporting viewers back to Roman times. The intricate details preserved within each fragment are a testament to the architectural prowess and craftsmanship of that period. As one gazes upon this image, it is impossible not to feel a sense of awe at the rich history embedded within these crumbling walls. The photographer skillfully captures both beauty and decay in perfect harmony, evoking contemplation about our own transience as compared to these enduring structures. Fairbank's lens invites us into an immersive experience where we can almost hear echoes from centuries past - bustling streets filled with merchants' calls and laughter; citizens going about their daily lives against this backdrop of grandeur. This print serves as a poignant reminder that even amidst ruins lie tales waiting to be discovered. It ignites curiosity about our shared heritage while reminding us how important it is to preserve such treasures for future generations.
