EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to c1925, showcasing the magnificent Great Bath at the Roman Baths in Bath, Somerset. This ancient city has a rich history and was first documented as a Roman spa, believed to have been founded even earlier. The healing waters from its spring were renowned for their curative properties. In this image, we are treated to a stunning view of the Great Bath with the iconic Bath Abbey standing proudly behind it. Construction of the Abbey began in 1499, making it one of England's last great medieval churches.
