The Lighthouse Memorial - A Tribute to Captain Scott's Antarctic Expedition
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures the serene beauty of Roath Park in Cardiff, Wales. Standing tall amidst the tranquil lake is the iconic Lighthouse Memorial, a testament to the indomitable spirit of exploration and adventure. Constructed in 1910, this memorial holds great historical significance as it commemorates Captain Scott's ill-fated voyage to the Antarctic from Cardiff. The scale model of the Terra Nova ship adorning its peak serves as a poignant reminder of the bravery and sacrifice exhibited by those who embarked on this daring expedition. However, etched in black paint across its surface are graffiti markings that read "Cardiff RAG 66". These bold strokes may be seen as an act of rebellion or youthful exuberance during a time when counterculture movements were gaining momentum. While these markings may detract from its original grandeur, they also serve as a reflection of societal shifts occurring during that era. Despite these alterations, one cannot deny the enduring allure and peaceful ambiance emanating from this picturesque scene. Roath Park remains a cherished oasis for leisurely strolls and quiet contemplation within bustling Cardiff city. As we gaze upon this remarkable image captured on February 8th, 1966, let us remember both Captain Scott's extraordinary journey and how even in our modern world, nature's wonders continue to captivate our hearts and minds.
