EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Eleanor Scriven showcases the historic Saxon Cross and Plague victims table tomb at Eyam Church, located in the hauntingly beautiful Plague Village of Eyam, Derbyshire. The image captures the essence of tradition and history that permeates this travel destination. The imposing Saxon Cross stands tall against a backdrop of stunning architecture, reminding us of the village's rich heritage. Its intricate carvings tell stories from centuries past, transporting viewers to a time when these lands were shaped by ancient civilizations. Adjacent to the cross lies a somber reminder of one of England's darkest periods - the Plague victims table tomb dedicated to Catherine Mompesson. This memorial serves as a poignant tribute to those who lost their lives during this devastating epidemic. Set amidst the picturesque Peak District National Park, Eyam Church is an architectural gem that exudes both beauty and solemnity. Its presence within a graveyard adds an air of tranquility and reflection, inviting visitors to contemplate life's transience. Eleanor Scriven skillfully captures all these elements in her color image. With no human presence in sight, we are left alone with our thoughts as we immerse ourselves in this historical landscape. Through her lens, she transports us back in time while simultaneously reminding us of our own mortality. This photograph is not just about buildings or graves; it encapsulates an entire narrative woven into every stone and etching present at Eyam Church - a testament to its enduring significance within British history and European culture
