EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the majestic Durnstein Castle in Austria, a historical landmark with ties to one of England's most famous kings, Richard the Lionheart. The upper ruins of this medieval castle are where Richard was held for a time on his return from the Crusades in 1851. The scenery surrounding the castle is breathtaking, with views of the river and picturesque church nearby adding to its charm.
The rich history and significance of Durnstein Castle make it a must-see destination for history buffs and travelers alike. The ruins stand as a reminder of a bygone era, transporting visitors back in time to when knights roamed the land and castles were fortresses against invaders.
In this print by Mary Evans Picture Library, the beauty and grandeur of Durnstein Castle are captured perfectly. The image showcases not only the impressive architecture of the castle but also highlights its idyllic location along the river. It's easy to imagine Richard the Lionheart gazing out at this same view centuries ago as he awaited his fate within these ancient walls.
Overall, this print is a testament to both the enduring legacy of Durnstein Castle and Mary Evans' talent for capturing historical landmarks in all their glory.
