EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Damian Grady takes us on a journey back in time to the enchanting Leicester Abbey. The image showcases the outline of the magnificent Abbey of St Mary de Pratis, which was established as an Augustinian house during the 12th century. Once a thriving religious sanctuary, this medieval abbey fell victim to the dissolution and later became known as Cavendish House. Tragically, its fate took a devastating turn when it succumbed to flames in 1645, leaving behind only remnants of its former glory. The meticulous excavation work conducted in the 1920s and 1930s allowed for the resurrection of this historical gem's architectural features. The stone outlines that were uncovered beautifully highlight the intricate layout of these sacred buildings. From an aerial perspective, we are afforded a unique glimpse into what once stood proudly within Abbey Park, Leicester. This photograph not only captures our imagination but also serves as a poignant reminder of England's rich heritage. Damian Grady skillfully immortalizes this piece of history through his lens, inviting us to reflect upon centuries gone by and appreciate how time has shaped our landscape. As we admire this remarkable artwork, let us celebrate those who have dedicated themselves to preserving our past for generations yet to come.
