EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a group of Roman soldiers from the Ermine Street Guard on the march, showcasing intricate details of their armor and shields. Taken at Birdoswald Roman Fort along Hadrian's Wall in Northumbria, England, this image transports us back to ancient times. The soldiers are seen carrying their shields with determination and purpose as they traverse the outdoor terrain. Their three-quarter length view allows us to appreciate the craftsmanship of their authentic Roman attire. The historical significance of this moment is palpable, reminding us of the rich past that shaped our present. The setting itself adds to the allure of this photograph. Hadrian's Wall stands tall in the background, acting as a silent witness to centuries gone by. Its presence symbolizes both strength and unity across Europe. Photographer James Emmerson/Robert Harding has skillfully captured this scene in vivid color, bringing life to these reenactors who passionately embody history through their costumes and actions. This small group of people takes part in reenactments like these to honor and preserve our collective heritage. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported not only geographically but also mentally into an era long gone yet still alive within our hearts. It serves as a reminder that travel destinations can offer more than just beautiful landscapes; they can provide glimpses into our shared human story through moments frozen in time like this one at Birdoswald Roman Fort.
