EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Roman Wall at Dorchester, taken in 1898 by an unknown creator. The photograph captures a moment frozen in time, revealing the ancient defensive walls that were built around the Roman town of Durnovaria during AD 300. The image is sourced from "Our Own Country, Volume V" a literary work published by Cassell and Company Ltd. in London, Paris, and Melbourne. The aged appearance of this 19th-century engraving adds to its historical charm. The circular shape of the city walls dominates the frame, emphasizing their significance as a protective barrier for Dorchester in Dorset, England. In the background, people can be seen going about their day against this backdrop of rich history. This print transports viewers back to a different era when Britain was under Roman rule. It offers a glimpse into an important part of English heritage and serves as a reminder of how civilizations have evolved over time. As we gaze upon this remarkable vista captured by an anonymous artist long ago, we are reminded of the enduring allure that ancient structures hold for tourists today. This image invites us to explore not only Dorchester's past but also our own connection to history and culture through travel and exploration.
