EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Jonathan Bailey showcases the remarkable Richborough Roman Fort, located in Sandwich, Kent. The image captures a mesmerizing general view across the site, highlighting the impressive triple ditches that were constructed during the third century. These earthworks serve as a testament to the fort's strategic importance and defensive capabilities. The photograph also offers a glimpse of the later fort's stone walls, which stand proudly in contrast to their ancient surroundings. The juxtaposition between these two architectural styles is truly awe-inspiring and provides valuable insight into the evolution of military structures throughout history. As we gaze upon this image, our eyes are drawn towards an enchanting cloud formation that hovers above the fort. Its ethereal presence adds an element of mystique to an already fascinating scene, reminding us of nature's ability to intertwine with human achievements. Jonathan Bailey has masterfully captured both the grandeur and subtleties of this historic site through his lens. His attention to detail allows us to appreciate not only its physical features but also its historical significance. This print serves as a visual reminder of our rich heritage and invites us to delve deeper into understanding ancient civilizations and their enduring legacies.
