EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mystical St Lythans burial chamber, a remarkable Neolithic monument nestled in Glamorgan, Wales. The image beautifully captures the essence of this megalithic tomb, with its ancient stones standing tall against the vibrant backdrop of nature's colors. Steeped in legend and folklore, this burial chamber holds an intriguing tale. It is said that on moonlit nights, a ghostly horse materializes near the tomb. Locals believe that anyone brave enough to mount this spectral steed will be whisked away into another realm or carried off into the unknown. The photograph not only immortalizes the physical artifact but also evokes a sense of wonder and mystery surrounding death and afterlife beliefs during prehistoric times. The St Lythans burial chamber stands as a testament to our ancestors' reverence for their departed loved ones—a mausoleum frozen in time. Through this image, we are transported back thousands of years to an era when rituals and ceremonies played a crucial role in honoring those who had passed on. It serves as a reminder of our deep connection to history and how these ancient structures continue to intrigue us today. Photographer CM Dixon skillfully captures both the tangible beauty of this portal grave and its intangible aura—making it impossible not to ponder what secrets lie within its stone walls.
