EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of St Josephs Chapel in Glastonbury Abbey during the late 19th century. The talented artist, Alexander Francis Lydon, skillfully portrays the intricate details of this historical doorway with precision and artistry. The image showcases a view through the beautifully carved archway, revealing an enchanting interior filled with religious symbolism. A woman dressed in traditional attire stands at the entrance, her presence exuding grace and reverence. Beside her loyal companion, a dog rests peacefully on the worn stone floor. The atmosphere within this sacred space is palpable as one can almost feel the weight of history that surrounds it. The ruins of Glastonbury Abbey stand as testament to centuries gone by, evoking a sense of awe and contemplation for those who visit. Frederick Ross's book "The Ruined Abbeys of Britain" immortalizes this moment in time when St Josephs Chapel stood in disrepair but still retained its grandeur. This wood engraving from William Mackenzie's publication transports us back to a bygone era where spirituality intertwined with architectural marvels. As we gaze upon this extraordinary piece of British heritage, we are reminded not only of our rich cultural past but also our responsibility to preserve these treasures for future generations to appreciate and cherish.
