EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the solemn beauty of the World War One and World War Two naval memorials on Southsea seafront in Portsmouth, England. Designed by renowned architects Sir Robert Lorimer and Sir Edmund Maufe respectively, these monuments stand as powerful tributes to the brave men and women who served their country during times of conflict. The first memorial, an obelisk created by Sir Robert Lorimer with sculptures by Henry Poole, pays homage to those who lost their lives in World War One. Its elegant design stands tall against the backdrop of the seaside resort town, serving as a reminder of the sacrifices made for freedom. Adjacent to it is the striking World War Two naval memorial designed by Sir Edmund Maufe, adorned with sculptures crafted by Charles Wheeler. This monument commemorates those who fought valiantly during another tumultuous period in history. The intricate details captured in this photograph highlight both its architectural brilliance and emotional significance. As we gaze upon this image captured by Paul Seheult from EyeUbiquitous, we are transported back in time to reflect on the profound impact that war has had on our world. It serves as a poignant reminder that even amidst tragedy and loss, humanity's resilience shines through art and architecture like these memorials - testaments to our shared history and collective memory.
