David R Abram’s ‘Aerial Atlas of Ancient Britain’
Join us for an evening of inspirational images from author and photographer, David R Abram.
David has spent the past eleven years capturing views of Britain’s most spectacular prehistoric sites from above in rare, sunrise light using drones and telescopic poles. Whether Neolithic tombs in Orkney, Bronze Age ceremonial sites in Snowdonia or the enigmatic earthworks carved by our ancestors across East Anglia, his images reveal astonishing forms invisible at ground level, and intriguing connections between the monuments and their varied landscapes.
Lively and rich with archaeological insight, David’s illustrated talk will cherry pick highlights from his book, the ‘Aerial Atlas of Ancient Britain’ (published by Thames & Hudson with a foreward by Professor Alice Roberts), which charts in 227 beautiful photos the arc of British prehistory, from the end of the Ice Age to the arrival of the Romans.
This is a rare opportunity to see his most acclaimed work projected at scale in Norfolk – an experience that is sure to inspire visits to prehistoric sites in the area you already know, and many you don’t!
Signed copies of the Aerial Atlas will be on sale after the talk.
