EDITORS COMMENTS
England, Tyne & Wear, Jarrow: A Glimpse into the Viking Legacy In this print by Jason Friend Photography, we are transported back in time to the historical town of Jarrow. Nestled in northern county Tyne & Wear, Jarrow holds a significant place in British history as one of the earliest targets of Viking raids on mainland Britain. Dating back to AD794, these fierce invaders set their sights on Jarrow's shores. However, fate had other plans for them as they were ultimately defeated during this particular invasion. The resilient inhabitants of Jarrow stood strong against the Viking onslaught and successfully defended their beloved town. Yet, destiny took a different turn for Jarrow when future Viking attacks unfolded. Despite their valiant efforts earlier on, the people of this once-thriving settlement faced unfortunate outcomes during subsequent encounters with these Norse warriors. This thought-provoking image serves as a reminder of both triumph and tragedy that shaped Jarrow's past. It captures not only the picturesque landscapes but also echoes tales of resilience and perseverance against formidable foes. Jason Friend's skillful lens beautifully encapsulates the essence of this historic site – an emblematic testament to England's enduring spirit throughout centuries marked by conquests and challenges. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph print from Jason Friend Photography, let us reflect upon the indomitable human spirit that has weathered storms throughout history.
