The Chapel in the Old Castle, Newcastle upon Tyne
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that transports viewers to a bygone era. Painted by Frederick Mackenzie in the 19th century, this bodycolour on paper artwork showcases the exquisite beauty of an ancient chapel nestled within the walls of an old castle. The image reveals a stunning interior with grand arches and a vaulted ceiling adorned with intricate masonry. The play of light and shadow adds depth and drama to the scene, creating an atmosphere of serenity and reverence. Amidst this architectural marvel, we see figures - men seated quietly, lost in their thoughts or perhaps engaged in prayer. Their presence adds a human touch to this majestic setting, reminding us of the spiritual significance these chapels held for generations past. The pillars stand tall like guardians, bearing witness to centuries of history unfolding within these sacred walls. Each brushstroke captures not just stone and mortar but also echoes the stories whispered through time. This painting invites us to reflect on our own connection with heritage and spirituality. It serves as a reminder that even amidst change and progress, there are places where time seems suspended – where we can find solace in contemplation or seek refuge from life's chaos. Displayed at Laing Art Gallery in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, UK, "The Chapel in the Old Castle" remains an enduring testament to both Mackenzie's artistic talent and his ability to transport us into another world through his evocative brushwork.
