EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to Sedbergh, a quaint town in Cumbria. The image showcases the transformation of an iconic building known as "The Old School" into what is now the beloved library of the community. Taken by an English photographer in the 19th century, this photograph captures the essence of history and preservation. The architectural details are beautifully highlighted against the monochromatic backdrop, emphasizing its grandeur and significance. Once a place of education for young minds, "The Old School" has gracefully evolved into a sanctuary for knowledge and imagination. Its walls have witnessed generations of students passing through its doors, leaving behind their legacies within these hallowed halls. This particular print was featured as an illustration for Richard Jackson's book on Sedbergh School and its Chapel in 1897. It serves as a testament to the enduring spirit of learning that continues to thrive within these walls. As we gaze upon this timeless image, we cannot help but be reminded of our own connection to history and how it shapes our present. This photograph invites us to reflect on the importance of preserving our heritage while embracing progress – reminding us that even old buildings can find new purpose and continue to serve their communities with pride.
