EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the enchanting city of Canterbury in 1898. The image showcases the magnificent Westgate, a Grade I listed medieval gatehouse that proudly stands as a symbol of the city's rich history. Built with Kentish ragstone in 1379, this architectural marvel has witnessed centuries of change. The scene is bustling with activity as people go about their daily lives on the cobbled streets. A horse-drawn cart passes through the gate, transporting goods and reminding us of a bygone era. Children play near the entrance, adding an element of innocence to this historical snapshot. The image captures not only the physical beauty of Westgate but also its significance as a defensive structure during earlier times. It reminds us that behind these stone walls lies tales of conquests and battles fought long ago. As we delve into "Our Own Country, Volume VI" published by Cassell and Company Ltd. , we are transported further into this moment frozen in time. This print serves as both an artistic portrayal and a valuable historical document, allowing us to appreciate Canterbury's heritage from over a century ago. Whether you are drawn to architecture or fascinated by British history, this photograph offers a glimpse into life during the Middle Ages while highlighting Canterbury's enduring charm as one of England's most cherished tourist attractions.
