Standing tall and proud, this arch was once the grand entrance to Pitt House, a magnificent mansion that unfortunately met its demise in 1952. The photographer behind this remarkable image is none other than John Gay. Captured between 1960 and 1965, Gay's lens skillfully frames the arch against a backdrop of lush greenery. Towering trees stand as silent witnesses to the passage of time and add an enchanting touch to this architectural marvel. The composition exudes a sense of tranquility and invites viewers to step into a bygone era. The Classical Arch itself is an exquisite example of classical architecture with its symmetrical design and intricate detailing.
