EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable reconstruction drawing by the talented artist Ivan Lapper, depicting an Iron Age man standing proudly beside a wooden palisade fence atop the iconic Liddington Castle Hillfort in Swindon. The intricate details of this artwork bring to life the rich history and culture of our ancestors from the Iron Age period. Liddington Castle, with its univallate hillfort structure, is beautifully illustrated in this piece. The defensive ramparts consisting of a single ring of bank and ditch encircle the hilltop, emphasizing its strategic importance as a fortification during ancient times. The earthwork construction stands as a testament to human ingenuity and resourcefulness in creating formidable defenses. The focal point of this illustration is undoubtedly the Iron Age man himself, adorned in his authentic costume and armed with shield and weapon. His presence exudes strength and resilience as he guards his territory against potential threats. This depiction offers us a glimpse into their way of life, reminding us that survival required not only physical prowess but also careful planning and defense strategies. Ivan Lapper's masterful brushstrokes breathe life into this historical scene, transporting viewers back thousands of years to witness firsthand the awe-inspiring world of our Iron Age ancestors. It serves as both an educational tool for understanding our past and an artistic tribute to those who came before us.
