Tired of prints that fade, curl, or lose their vibrancy over time? This exclusive 10" x 8" roche abbey photographic print, professionally produced on premium Fujifilm Crystal Archive DPII gloss paper, delivers exceptional sharpness, rich colours, and long-lasting quality.
Unlike flimsy paper prints that require immediate framing, this artwork comes backed with a sturdy 12" x 10" acid-free board, providing support and protection. The print is loosely fixed in place, allowing for natural expansion and preventing warping. A classic 2" frame mount overlays the print, making it ready for framing while ensuring long-term preservation. The acid-free materials prevent yellowing and deterioration, so your print stays as striking as the day you bought it.
Perfect for any space, this stunning, ready-to-mount print blends seamlessly with both modern and traditional interiors.
Roche Abbey, a serene Cistercian monastery founded in 1147 in a secluded South Yorkshire valley, stands as one of England's finest examples of early Gothic architecture. Home to the "White Monks," it once housed around 50 monks and 100 lay brothers at its peak, thriving in isolation near the edge of ancient Sherwood Forest—legend even whispers that Robin Hood attended Mass here.
This beautiful colour photograph captures the majestic ruins of Roche Abbey's early Gothic church, with the towering north and south transept walls standing almost to their full original height like twin sentinels. The pale limestone stonework, adorned with tall arched windows and delicate Gothic tracery now open to the sky, is softened by patches of ivy and framed by lush green trees and grassy meadows.
Taken on a bright day with scattered clouds, the image highlights the symmetrical grandeur of the crossing area, where low foundation walls trace the former nave and presbytery in the foreground.
The tranquil valley setting and warm sunlight evoke a profound sense of timeless serenity and historical romance, inviting viewers to imagine the abbey's former glory.
Original photography by Carol Herbert - available only at Real World Art.

| Care Instructions | Handle with Clean, Dry Hands - Oils and dirt from your fingers can damage the surface. Avoid Direct Sunlight - Even with high-quality archival paper, prolonged UV exposure can cause fading over time. Avoid areas with high humidity, such as bathrooms or kitchens, to prevent warping or discolouration. Glossy prints are more prone to fingerprints and scratches, so avoid unnecessary contact.Use an Anti-Static Brush for Dusting - Gloss prints attract more dust, so a soft brush helps maintain a clean surface. If smudges appear, use a slightly damp microfibre cloth and blot (don't rub!) to avoid scratching. |

Absolutely wonderful photo! I bought it for my grandson but my daughter loved it so much that we decided it would be a waste to put it on his bedroom wall. The quality and detail demands a place where everyone can see it. I would definitely recommend this to family and friends. Thank you for the quick delivery too!
