EDITORS COMMENTS
This haunting image captures the caretaker of St. Davids Cathedral in Pembrokeshire, Wales, holding a section of the cathedral's woodwork that has been severely damaged by the Death Watch Beetle. The date is set in the 1930s, a time when this historic building was facing a serious infestation crisis.
The Death Watch Beetle, known for its destructive nature towards wooden structures, had taken its toll on the cathedral's intricate and ancient woodwork. In this photograph, we see the caretaker examining the damage with a look of concern and sadness on his face.
The image serves as a reminder of both the fragility of historical buildings and the constant battle against natural elements that caretakers and preservationists face. It also highlights the importance of regular maintenance and vigilance in protecting our cultural heritage from irreversible harm.
Through Mary Evans Picture Library's lens, we are transported back in time to witness a pivotal moment in St. Davids Cathedral's history - one that showcases not only architectural beauty but also resilience in overcoming challenges posed by nature itself.
