EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Entrance to the Abbey" takes us back in time to the 14th century, capturing the essence of medieval architecture and history. The image showcases the magnificent Mont Saint-Michel located in Normandy, France. Standing tall against a picturesque backdrop of the Normandy and Brittany coast, this fortified Benedictine abbey and church exude an aura of grandeur. The focal point of this photograph is undoubtedly the chatelet with its large external staircase. Its intricate design draws our attention as we marvel at its gothic architecture, complete with castellations and a towering presence that commands respect. The steps leading up to this entrance seem almost mystical, inviting us on a journey through time. As we gaze upon this image, we can't help but imagine ourselves walking along the causeway towards Mont Saint-Michel's imposing structure. We envision monks ascending these very stairs centuries ago, seeking solace within their sacred walls. The photographer has skillfully captured every detail - from the meticulously crafted stone staircase to the majestic tower overlooking it all. This print transports us into a world where medieval fortresses stood as symbols of power and spirituality. With its rich historical significance and breathtaking beauty, "Entrance to the Abbey" serves as a reminder of humanity's ability to create architectural wonders that withstand both time and tide.
