EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled ""Wootton stood quite upright on the Pinnacle of the Steeple"" transports us back to a bygone era, capturing both the awe-inspiring architecture and the daring spirit of its time. The image showcases an English School masterpiece from the 19th century, now held in a private collection. The focal point is Wootton, a steeple climber or steeplejack, who fearlessly stands upright on top of the pinnacle of St Mary's Church in Manchester. His audacious feat is depicted with remarkable detail and precision, emphasizing his courage and skill as he defies gravity high above ground level. The stone church itself serves as an impressive backdrop for this extraordinary moment frozen in time. Its grandeur and intricate design exemplify architectural excellence while symbolizing faith and community. This artwork not only celebrates Wootton's incredible accomplishment but also pays homage to public monuments that stand as testaments to human ingenuity throughout history. It reminds us of our capacity to create enduring works of art that inspire generations to come. With its digitally cleaned image courtesy of Look and Learn, this print offers viewers a chance to appreciate both the artistic mastery behind it and the historical significance it represents. As we gaze upon this striking piece, we are reminded that great feats can be achieved when one dares to reach new heights – both literally and metaphorically – just like Wootton atop that steeple pinnacle.
