EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Lorna Freeman showcases the remarkable Tombs at St. Lawrence's Church in Bourton on the Water, Gloucestershire. Dating back to the 17th century, these three Bale Tombs stand as solemn reminders of a bygone era. The composition beautifully captures their intricate details and weathered surfaces, evoking a sense of both reverence and curiosity. Nestled within the churchyard, these tombs hold stories untold and lives long forgotten. Each tombstone bears witness to the passage of time, standing tall amidst nature's embrace. The surrounding trees provide a serene backdrop that adds an ethereal quality to this scene. Listed as an important historical site by Historic England (IoE 126453), these tombs are not merely physical structures but symbols of religious significance and contemplation. They serve as tangible connections between past generations and present observers. Lorna Freeman's expertly captured image invites viewers to reflect upon life's transience and the inevitability of death itself. It prompts us to ponder our own mortality while appreciating the beauty found even in places dedicated to remembrance. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are reminded that history is not confined solely within textbooks or museums; it lives among us in everyday landscapes like St Lawrence’s Churchyard – where past meets present through stone memorials under ancient trees.
