EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the majestic Buckfast Abbey, standing proudly in its north view in Devon. The artist, J Salmon, has beautifully captured the essence of this historic landmark and its surroundings. Buckfast Abbey's rich history dates back to 1018 when it was founded by Cistercian monks. However, during the Dissolution of the Monasteries in 1539, it fell into ruins. It wasn't until 1882 that six Benedictine monks from France arrived at Buckfast and initiated its remarkable restoration process. The abbey's reconstruction continued for over five decades until its completion in 1937. This print allows us to marvel at the architectural brilliance of this 20th-century revival masterpiece against a backdrop of lush greenery and serene riverbanks. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of the resilience and dedication that went into rebuilding such an iconic religious structure. The vibrant colors bring life to every detail - from the intricate design elements on the building itself to the blooming flowers adorning its surroundings. Buckfast Abbey stands as a testament to faith and perseverance throughout centuries. Its presence not only serves as a place of worship but also adds charm and beauty to England's landscape. J Salmon's artistry truly captures both the historical significance and natural splendor embodied within Buckfast Abbey, making this print a cherished piece for any admirer of architecture or lover of British heritage.
