EDITORS COMMENTS
Mason Court, Stratford-Upon-Avon: A Glimpse into the Past through an Etching from the Early 20th Century Nestled in the heart of Stratford-Upon-Avon, a quintessential English town famed for being the birthplace of the renowned playwright William Shakespeare, stands the ancient Mason Court. This evocative etching, captured around the turn of the 20th century, offers a captivating glimpse into the rich history of this medieval hall, which is believed to be the oldest building in the town. Dating back to 1482, Mason Court is a testament to the architectural and historical significance of Stratford-Upon-Avon. The building, located just a stone's throw away from Shakespeare's birthplace, has been meticulously preserved, allowing us to step back in time and envision the town as it was centuries ago. The etching, produced circa 1920, reveals a charming, colourful scene of Mason Court, with its timber-framed facade adorned with intricate details, and its red-tiled roof, reminiscent of a bygone era. The building's history is further enriched by the presence of the Ruby Hare, a heraldic symbol that can be seen on the wall, adding an air of mystery and intrigue. This etching, part of the March of the Women Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, Volume 12, serves as a poignant reminder of the enduring allure of Stratford-Upon-Avon's historical landmarks and the importance of preserving them for future generations to appreciate. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time, allowing us to experience the magic and wonder of this enchanting town and its storied past.
