EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the timeless beauty of Lord Leycester Hospital, located in the heart of Warwickshire's historic town. The image showcases the exquisite timber-framed buildings from a unique perspective, as seen from the North East with St James's Chantry Chapel majestically standing in the background. Nigel Corrie skillfully portrays the medieval charm and architectural grandeur that defines this iconic landmark. Lord Leycester Hospital holds a significant place in history, dating back to its establishment in 1571 by Robert Dudley, Earl of Leicester. Originally built as a retirement home for old warriors and soldiers wounded during battle, it now stands as an enduring testament to England's rich heritage. The intricate details of the timber frames are beautifully captured in this photograph, showcasing their craftsmanship and resilience over centuries. The weathered facade tells stories of countless generations who have walked through these hallowed halls. St James's Chantry Chapel adds an ethereal touch to this composition. Its towering presence against a backdrop of clear blue skies evokes a sense of serenity and spirituality. Nigel Corrie's lens has immortalized this remarkable scene, allowing us to appreciate not only its historical significance but also its aesthetic allure. This print serves as a visual reminder that our past is intricately woven into our present, reminding us to cherish and preserve these architectural treasures for future generations to admire and learn from.
