EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite floor tiles of Cleeve Abbey in Somerset. The intricate design depicts a historical encounter between two legendary figures - Richard I and Saladin. As one gazes upon this remarkable artefact, it is impossible not to be transported back in time. The decorative nature of these tiles is truly awe-inspiring. Each tile tells a story, capturing the essence of a bygone era with its vibrant colors and meticulous craftsmanship. The attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, as if the artist's hand still lingers on their surface. In this particular scene depicted on the tiles, we witness an iconic moment where Richard I, also known as Richard the Lionheart, meets his formidable adversary Saladin during the Third Crusade. Mounted on majestic horses that seem ready to gallop right out of the frame, both leaders exude power and determination. These floor tiles are more than just mere decorations; they serve as a testament to human history and cultural exchange. They remind us of our shared past and how different civilizations have influenced each other throughout time. Thanks to Mike Hesketh-Roberts' skillful photography, we can now appreciate these magnificent tiles up close and marvel at their beauty from afar. This print encapsulates not only an extraordinary piece of art but also serves as a visual gateway into centuries-old tales waiting to be discovered within Cleeve Abbey's walls.
