EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the breathtaking beauty and historical significance of St Albans Abbey's west front, as it appeared in the late 1800s before the additions made by Grimthorpe in the early 1880s. Located in the heart of St Albans, Hertfordshire, this magnificent Gothic abbey has stood as a testament to faith and architectural mastery for over 800 years. The west front, with its intricately carved stonework, towering gothic arches, and ornate rose window, is a visual feast for the eyes. The sepia toning of this photograph adds to the sense of timelessness and nostalgia, transporting us back to an era when horse-drawn carriages were the primary mode of transportation and the Industrial Revolution was transforming the world around us. St Albans Abbey, also known as the Cathedral and Abbey Church of Saint Albana, has a rich history that dates back to the 11th century. It was founded by the monks of the Abbey of Monte Cassino and has been a place of pilgrimage and worship for centuries. The abbey was originally built to honor St Alban, the first British Christian martyr, who was said to have lived in the area during the 3rd or 4th century. This photograph is a reminder of the architectural and historical treasures that can be found in Hertfordshire and beyond. It invites us to pause and reflect on the beauty and significance of our past, while also inspiring us to appreciate the architectural wonders that continue to shape our world today.
