EDITORS COMMENTS
This image transports us back in time to the mystical landscape of Stonehenge in Wiltshire, England, during the 1910s. The prehistoric monument, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is a circular arrangement of massive standing stones that date back to some time between 3000 BC and 2000 BC. The monument, a testament to the ingenuity and cultural richness of ancient civilizations, has long been a source of fascination and wonder. In this photograph, the ancient stones stand proudly against the backdrop of the English countryside, their silent sentinel presence undisturbed by the passage of time. Above them, a lightweight aircraft gracefully flies, offering a unique perspective of this iconic landmark. The juxtaposition of the ancient and the modern creates an intriguing contrast, highlighting the enduring allure of Stonehenge and its place in history. Located in the west of England, in the heart of the picturesque West Country, Stonehenge continues to be a popular tourist destination and a symbol of British heritage. The monument, a circular enclosure with a diameter of approximately 100 meters, is believed to have been used for religious and astronomical purposes. The exact meaning behind its construction remains a mystery, adding to its enigmatic allure. This photograph, from The Roseries Collection at Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the past, inviting us to ponder the stories and secrets that Stonehenge holds, and the connection we all share to this ancient and fascinating place.
