EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1895, capturing the majestic beauty of Carnarvon Castle in Wales. The image is sourced from "Round the Coast" a book published by George Newnes Limited in London during that era. The photograph showcases not only the stunning architecture of this historic castle but also provides a glimpse into life at that time. In the foreground, we see several men rowing their boats along the calm waters of Menai Strait, engaging in trade and transportation activities. Carnarvon Castle itself stands tall against the backdrop of a scenic coastal landscape, exuding an air of grandeur and fortification. Its medieval design dates back to the 12th century when it was built as a motte-and-bailey structure. As we delve into this monochrome masterpiece, we are transported to a different era - one where literature and art were flourishing alongside advancements in transport and technology. This print serves as both a historical document and an artistic representation of British heritage. With its intricate facade and strategic location overlooking Gwynedd's coast, Carnarvon Castle continues to be an iconic landmark today. It reminds us of Wales' rich cultural history while offering visitors breathtaking views that have remained unchanged for centuries.
