EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic Statue of King Alfred the Great in Winchester, Hampshire. Created by renowned sculptor Hamo Thornycroft, this impressive statue was unveiled in 1899 to commemorate the millenary of Alfred's death. Standing tall against a backdrop of stunning architecture, it serves as a powerful tribute to one of England's most revered monarchs. In this image, we see a group of people gathered around the statue, admiring its grandeur and paying their respects to the legendary king. The men in the photograph exude a sense of awe and reverence as they stand beside this symbol of heroism and royal heritage. The monochrome aesthetic adds an air of nostalgia to the scene, transporting us back to early 20th century England. It is evident that this commemorative artwork holds great significance for both locals and visitors alike. King Alfred's legacy as a wise ruler who defended his kingdom against Viking invasions has made him an enduring figure in British history.
