EDITORS COMMENTS
This sepia drawing, titled "Penkridge Church - Tomb of [Sir Edward Littleton]" takes us back to the late 18th century. The artist, T. Carter, skillfully captures the essence of this historical site with meticulous detail and precision. The focal point of the drawing is a magnificent table tomb located inside Penkridge Church. As we gaze upon it, we are immediately drawn to the five shields of arms adorning its side and the seven beautifully carved effigies surrounding it. These intricate details speak volumes about the importance and prestige associated with this burial place. Atop the tomb lies a striking figure in full armor – none other than Sir Edward Littleton himself. This brave knight, who lived during the year 1574, is immortalized in stone as he rests eternally within this hallowed ground. Carter's perspective allows us to view this remarkable scene from Sir Edward's feet upwards, providing a unique vantage point that emphasizes his grandeur and significance even further. As we delve into history through this evocative print, we can't help but feel a sense of awe for both Sir Edward Littleton and Penkridge Church itself. It serves as a testament to an era long gone yet preserved through artistry like Carter's drawing. This image is part of eWilliam Salt Library's collection and has been made available by Bridgeman Images for our appreciation today. Let us cherish these glimpses into our past that continue to inspire wonderment
