EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Among the Ruins, Sussex" takes us back to 19th century England, where a woman is seen immersed in her reading amidst the picturesque rural landscape. The image showcases the beauty of Sussex's countryside, with its stone walls and ancient ruins serving as a backdrop for this tranquil scene. The woman, dressed in Victorian attire and wearing an elegant hat, exudes an air of sophistication as she engrosses herself in her letters. Her presence adds a touch of social grace to this otherwise desolate setting. It is evident that she has found solace among these ruins, finding respite from the bustling city life. The artist behind this remarkable colour lithograph is John Absolon (1815-95), whose work was exhibited at the New Water Colour Gallery. This particular piece was featured in Beauties of England and Wales and later appeared in Illustrated London News on July 26th, 1856. As we gaze upon this enchanting illustration, we are transported back to a time when history melded seamlessly with nature's splendor. The ruins symbolize both decay and resilience while reminding us of our connection to the past. Through Absolon's skilled hand and attention to detail, he captures not only the physical beauty but also evokes emotions within us - nostalgia for simpler times and admiration for the enduring spirit found within these ancient stones. This print serves as a testament to both English history and artistic excellence; it invites us into a world long gone yet forever
