EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the serene and awe-inspiring interior of St Marys Church in Amersham, Buckinghamshire. Dating all the way back to the 13th century, this medieval marvel stands as a testament to centuries of devotion and architectural brilliance. As we gaze upon this image captured by Henry Taunt, our eyes are immediately drawn towards the majestic column that proudly supports the church's magnificent structure. Its weathered stone whispers tales of countless prayers uttered within these hallowed walls. The photograph invites us on a visual journey down the aisled nave, leading our gaze towards the chancel at its eastern end. The soft light filtering through stained glass windows casts an ethereal glow upon every surface it touches, illuminating intricate details carved into wooden pews and ancient stone pillars. St Marys Church is not merely a place of worship; it is a living testament to history itself. Each step taken within its sacred confines echoes with reverence for those who have come before us.
