EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1716, capturing the majestic ruins of Newark Priory in Surrey, England. Nestled on the banks of the serene River Wey near Pyrford village, this once thriving priory now stands as a testament to its rich history and architectural beauty. The monochrome tones add an air of mystery and timelessness to this image, allowing us to imagine what life might have been like within these walls centuries ago. Built in the 12th century by Augustinian monks, Newark Priory served as a place of worship and contemplation for devout Christians throughout the years. Despite its ruined state, one can still appreciate the grandeur that once defined this religious structure. The intricate details etched into every stone tell stories of devotion and faith that have withstood the test of time. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back to a different era - a time when Newark Priory was alive with prayerful chants and bustling activity. It serves as a reminder that even in decayed form, remnants from our past hold immense value in preserving our cultural heritage. Thanks to S Hooper's skillful lens work in 1772, we are able to cherish this snapshot forever. Let it be an inspiration for future generations who seek solace amidst ancient ruins or those who simply marvel at mankind's ability to create enduring works of art through architecture.
