EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent St. Augustine's Gate in Canterbury, Kent, dating back to approximately 1835. The gatehouse, also known as the Fyndon Gate, was meticulously rebuilt between 1301 and 1309 by Abbot Fyndon of St. Augustine's Abbey, a prominent Benedictine monastery in Canterbury. The image captures the essence of medieval architecture with its Gothic design and intricate details that have stood the test of time. As we gaze upon this remarkable entrance, we are transported back to the 14th century when this gate served as a symbol of religious devotion and spiritual significance. The photograph is an engraving from Thomas Dugdale's renowned work "Curiosities of Great Britain: England & Wales Delineated" providing us with a glimpse into the rich history and cultural heritage of England. Through this print, we can appreciate both the grandeur of British architecture and the natural beauty surrounding it. The landscape frames St. Augustine's Gate perfectly, emphasizing its importance within its surroundings.
