This print takes us back to a quaint corner of Old Lichfield, where history and craftsmanship intertwine. Quonians Lane, nestled off Dam Street, stands almost in the shadow of the magnificent Cathedral that has watched over this ancient city for centuries. In this hidden gem lies the workshops of a renowned firm of ecclesiastical sculptors, where skilled craftsmen dedicate their days to shaping wood and stone into exquisite works of art. The air is thick with creativity as these talented individuals pour their passion into every stroke and chisel mark. Their creations are not confined within these walls; they can be found adorning churches throughout the country, each piece bearing witness to their meticulous attention to detail and unwavering dedication. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time on 11th November 1952, we are transported back to an era when artistry thrived amidst cobblestone streets. The charm emanating from this scene captures the essence of 1950s Britain - a time when traditional crafts held steadfast against modernization. This photograph serves as a testament to the enduring beauty created by human hands. It reminds us that even in our fast-paced world, there are still corners where time slows down and artisans continue to shape objects that transcend generations.
