EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Derek Kendall, titled "Tabula set DP076633" we are transported to the enchanting world of Dover Castle in Kent. The image captures a mesmerizing scene within the Guest Chamber of the castle's Great Tower, where history and intrigue intertwine. As our eyes wander across the frame, we are immediately drawn to a distorted reflection that dances upon a table. It is none other than a tabula game board and its accompanying playing pieces. This ghostly apparition seems to have materialized from another time, evoking an air of mystery and wonder. The medieval ambiance envelops us as we imagine knights and nobles engaging in strategic battles on this very board. The worn-out surface tells tales of countless victories and defeats throughout centuries past. Its presence reminds us that even amidst grandeur and power, leisure activities were cherished during the Middle Ages. But there is more to this image than meets the eye. A subtle sense of drunkenness or wooziness emanates from the reflection, leaving us questioning whether it is merely an optical illusion or something supernatural at play within these ancient walls. Derek Kendall has masterfully captured not only a historical artifact but also an intangible essence that lingers within Dover Castle's hallowed halls. Through his lens, he invites us into a realm where reality blends with imagination—a place where medieval echoes reverberate through time itself.
