EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the year 1066, offering a glimpse into the world of monastic chroniclers during the Battle of Hastings. Created by talented artist Judith Dobie, this reconstruction drawing transports us to Battle Abbey and immerses us in a scene that is both historically significant and deeply religious. In this illustration, we see a monk diligently recording events as they unfold around him. His quill pen poised above parchment, he captures every detail with unwavering focus. The solemn expression on his face reflects the gravity of his task - preserving history for future generations. The setting itself is awe-inspiring; Battle Abbey stands tall in the background, its Norman architecture commanding attention. The abbey's grandeur serves as a reminder of its significance as both a place of worship and an important historical landmark. Dobie's skillful use of graphics brings life to this monastic chronicle from over nine centuries ago. Through her meticulous attention to detail, she successfully transports viewers back in time, allowing them to witness firsthand one aspect of medieval life that often goes unnoticed. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork, we are reminded not only of the pivotal Battle of Hastings but also how religion played an integral role during those tumultuous times. This print serves as a testament to our collective human desire to document and understand our past while paying homage to those who dedicated their lives to such noble pursuits.
