EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the grandeur of The Great Hall on the south front of Bayons Manor, as featured in Giles Worsley's book "England's Lost Houses". Built by Charles Tennyson d'Eyncourt between 1839-42, this gothic revival masterpiece stood tall until its unfortunate demise. Sold and left unoccupied after the Second World War, it fell into disrepair before being photographed in 1960. Tragically, this architectural gem was ultimately demolished in 1965. The image showcases the picturesque style of the Victorian gothic movement, with its towering exterior adorned with intricate tracery. Its Gothic Revival elements are evident throughout, reflecting a bygone era of elegance and opulence. However, time has taken its toll on this once majestic structure; now reduced to ruins and derelict. Photographer Bridgeman Images expertly captured both the beauty and tragedy within this frame. Their lens immortalizes a piece of history that no longer exists physically but lives on through their artistry. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of how even magnificent structures can succumb to destruction over time. In preserving moments like these through photography, we gain insight into our past while also appreciating the impermanence of human creations. It is a testament to both our ability to create breathtaking architecture and our responsibility to protect these treasures for future generations.
