EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the enchanting landscape of Mother Ludhams Hole, near Farnham in Surrey, England. The year is 1786, and artist Hawkins skillfully captures the mystique surrounding this small cave nestled within the sandstone cliff of the Wey Valley at Moor Park. Legend has it that this very cave was once home to Mother Ludlam, a renowned white witch whose presence still lingers in these ancient walls. As we gaze upon the image, our eyes are drawn to a man standing by a fence, peering into the darkness of the cave. His curiosity mirrors our own as we imagine what secrets lie hidden within its depths. The monochrome backdrop adds an air of mystery and timelessness to this scene from another era. Henry Boswell's publication "The Antiquities of England and Wales" brings this extraordinary location to life for all who lay their eyes upon it. This engraving serves as a window into history, transporting us back to an eighteenth-century landscape steeped in legend and folklore. Let us be captivated by this remarkable piece of artistry that immortalizes both nature's beauty and humanity's fascination with tales from centuries past.
