EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the majestic Harlech Castle, a Grade I-listed medieval fortification located near the Irish Sea. Built by Edward I in the 13th century, this architectural marvel has stood the test of time and is now recognized as a World Heritage site. The image was captured in 1898 and features an aerial view of the castle, highlighting its circular shape and impressive size. The photograph is sourced from "Our Own Country, Volume III" a book published by Cassell and Company Ltd in London, Paris, and Melbourne. The unknown creator skillfully engraved this historic scene to bring it to life on paper. Harlech Castle holds great significance in British history as it served as a military stronghold during various conflicts. King Edward I himself played a crucial role in its construction, earning him nicknames like "Edward Longshanks" or "Hammer of the Scots". This image provides us with a glimpse into medieval times when castles were not only defensive structures but also symbols of power. With its elevated viewpoint capturing both the castle's grandeur and its picturesque surroundings in Gwynedd, Wales, this print evokes feelings of awe and curiosity about our rich historical heritage. It serves as a reminder of how architecture can transcend centuries while preserving stories that continue to captivate us today.
