EDITORS COMMENTS
The Priory Church, Tynemouth, 1790" is a stunning pencil and watercolour print by Edward Dayes. This artwork measures 51.6x39.6 cm and is housed in the Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums collection. The focal point of this piece is the fortified Priory Church, which was constructed during the 13th and 14th centuries before its closure in 1538. The church holds historical significance as it served as the burial place for Oswin and Osred, kings of Northumbria. During the late 18th century, artists and scholars developed a keen interest in Britain's ancient heritage, leading to an increased focus on architectural antiquities. "The Priory Church, Tynemouth" became widely recognized when it was reproduced as an engraving for John Britton's publication "Architectural Antiquities of Great Britain" released between 1807-1826. Edward Dayes expertly captures the gothic beauty of this monument with delicate brushstrokes and vivid colours. The painting showcases intricate arches that add depth to the composition while highlighting the unique art movement prevalent during this time period. This enchanting landscape painting transports viewers back to early eighteenth-century England. It portrays a dilapidated ruin without any people present, allowing us to appreciate both its historical significance and aesthetic charm. Colin Davison's photograph beautifully preserves this remarkable work of art from Fine Art Finder for all art enthusiasts to admire.
