EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1912, capturing the majestic Saint Hildas Abbey in Whitby, England. The weather seems gloomy as rain pours down on this desolate landscape, adding a sense of melancholy to the scene. The ruins of this ancient monastery stand proudly against the cloudy backdrop, showcasing its rich religious history. The abbey's architecture is truly remarkable; its grandeur speaks volumes about the craftsmanship of that era. As we gaze at this panoramic photograph, we can't help but imagine what life was like within these walls during the 7th century when it was founded by Saint Hilda herself. This image comes from "The Mighty Army" a book written by W. M. Letts and illustrated by Stephen Reid in 1912. It serves as a visual representation of British literature and art from that time period. Whitby's Saint Hildas Abbey holds great significance not only for its historical value but also for its cultural importance in North Yorkshire. This print allows us to appreciate both the beauty and resilience of this iconic landmark despite being surrounded by bad weather. In summary, this lithograph captures an awe-inspiring moment in time - a testament to St. Hilda's enduring legacy and her impact on religion and architecture throughout Britain's history.
