The image showcases a remarkable architectural gem nestled within the historical town of St Albans. Standing tall against the sky, this stone church with its intricate design and grandeur is truly awe-inspiring. The focus of this print is on the excubitorium or watching-loft, a unique feature that sets this church apart. Perched high above, it served as a lookout point for those who wished to observe events taking place in the surrounding area. This vantage point allowed them to keep a watchful eye over their beloved town. The artist's attention to detail brings out every aspect of this magnificent structure - from the carefully crafted stonework to the delicate arches that adorn its facade.
