EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures a moment in time at the historic ruins of Cowdray Castle in Sussex, England. A female cyclist is seen admiring the majestic remains of this once grand estate, which holds a rich history dating back to 1542 when Henry VIII awarded the house to Sir Anthony Brown, Master of the Horse.
The castle's story is one filled with intrigue and tragedy, as it was said to be cursed after a devastating fire in 1793 left it in ruins. Despite its tumultuous past, Cowdray Castle still stands as a testament to England's architectural heritage.
In this image, we see the juxtaposition of modernity with antiquity as the cyclist takes a moment to appreciate the beauty and significance of these ancient buildings. The peaceful August day provides the perfect backdrop for reflection on centuries gone by.
As we gaze upon this scene captured by Rights Managed photography, we are reminded of the enduring legacy of Cowdray Castle and its place in English history. It serves as a reminder that even in decay, there is beauty and stories waiting to be discovered within these crumbling walls.
