EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the ancient Roman era, showcasing a remarkable piece of history that has found an unconventional new purpose. At Newport Pagnell, nestled within the serene gardens of Mr Bullard's residence, lies a Roman bath that once graced the grounds of Stowe House. Transported to England long before the advent of railways, this magnificent relic made its arduous journey from the coast to its current resting place atop an ox cart. Now serving as an enchanting bulb bed in Mr Bullard's garden, this Roman bath exudes both elegance and resilience. Its weathered stone walls bear witness to centuries gone by while embracing a newfound role amidst nature's beauty. The monochrome hues captured in this image further accentuate its timeless appeal. Photographer Alfieri skillfully captures not only the physical presence of this ancient structure but also evokes our imagination about life during Rome's heyday. This photograph transports us back in time, allowing us to marvel at the ingenuity and craftsmanship of those who came before us. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded that history is not confined to textbooks or museums; it can be discovered right in our own backyard. The fusion between past and present embodied by Mr Bullard's unique use for this Roman bath serves as a testament to humanity's ability to adapt and appreciate our collective heritage.
