EDITORS COMMENTS
In the heart of Somerset, England, lies the enigmatic Stanton Drew Stone Circle, a fascinating relic of ancient times that has captivated the imagination of generations. This image showcases the ethereal beauty and mystery of these ancient standing stones, which are believed to date back to around 3000 BC. According to local legend, the Stanton Drew Stones were once a lively wedding party, celebrating the union of two young lovers. The merriment continued late into the night, and the revelers, oblivious to the Sabbath, were transformed into stone by the vengeful Devil as a punishment for their transgression. The legend adds an intriguing layer of mythology to the archaeological significance of this ancient site. The circle consists of three distinct groupings: the Great Circle, the Lesser Circle, and the Bell Stone. The Great Circle, with its 27 stones, is the most impressive and is believed to have been used for various rituals and ceremonies. The Stanton Drew Stones have been a source of fascination for archaeologists, historians, and folklorists alike, who have studied their origins, purpose, and the stories that have grown around them. The site is open to the public, allowing visitors to explore the ancient stones and ponder the mysteries of the past. The image of the Stanton Drew Stones in this print captures the essence of the site's otherworldly allure, with the sun casting long shadows over the stones and the misty landscape adding to the sense of timelessness and mystery.
