EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time and witness the enduring legacy of Holy Cross Hospital, also known as the Hospital of St. Cross, in the heart of Winchester, England. Founded between 1132 and 1136 by Henry de Blois, this Norman institution is a testament to the power of community and charity that has endured for over 900 years. The print showcases the impressive architecture of this historic site, with its distinctive chimneys and chimney stacks rising against the backdrop of the 12th-century buildings. The chimneys, a later addition to the hospital, are a reminder of the importance of warmth and comfort, even in the most ancient of institutions. As Britains oldest charitable institution, Holy Cross Hospital has provided shelter, care, and support to the sick, the poor, and the destitute for nearly a millennium. The hospital was founded by Henry de Blois, Bishop of Winchester and the younger brother of King Stephen, as a place of refuge for pilgrims and the sick. The hospital's dedication to charity and community has remained unwavering throughout the centuries, and it continues to serve the people of Winchester and beyond to this day. The print captures the essence of this remarkable institution, a symbol of hope, healing, and the enduring power of compassion and generosity.
