EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of history - Hadrian's Wall, standing tall against the backdrop of Northumberland's breathtaking landscape. The image captures a 460-metre stretch of this iconic Roman structure, featuring one of its impressive turrets known as Black Carts Turret. Hadrian's Wall stands as a testament to the ingenuity and engineering prowess of the ancient Romans. Built in AD 122 under Emperor Hadrian's orders, it served as a formidable defense line marking the northern frontier of their empire. This photograph beautifully encapsulates both the grandeur and resilience embodied by this architectural marvel. The composition is truly striking; with an expansive sky painted in hues ranging from soft blues to wisps of white clouds, it creates an awe-inspiring contrast against the solid stone wall that has stood for centuries. The photographer skillfully captures not only the physical presence but also evokes a sense of timelessness and wonder. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded that history lives on through these remnants from our past. It serves as an invitation to explore our heritage and appreciate how human determination can shape landscapes even after millennia have passed. Alun Bull has masterfully captured this moment in time, allowing us to admire Hadrian's Wall in all its glory while contemplating its historical significance.
