Corfe Castle, 16.V.2025
One of the most impressive ruins I've ever seen. Technically a crusader castle. I'm 99.9% sure TE would not agree with the info board:
"A summing up of the whole matter would be the statement that 'the Crusading architects were for many years copyists of the Western builders'."
Which, unless a dedicated medievalist corrects me, appears to have been confirmed by modern research as well. Hm! Should we tell National Trust?

@rebellionbeach I hope you get to visit it too! And thank you I'm happy you like them - I got insanely lucky with the light as it was a bright sunny morning. I also felt like most of the pictures available online don't do the effigy justice - it often seems a bit flat, which is so far from the truth, I was really taken aback by the plasticity and shapeliness of the thing. Kennington knew what he was doing. Also I can't resist (no self-restraint I'm afraid!) and am putting a bit more under the cut, I hope I'm not spamming:

As part of this process he slept in a coffin. I don't know whether he bought it or made it but he slept in it on hard boards without any pillows.
#t.e. lawrence#traditional art#ink#artists on tumblr#my art#on the anniversary i thought i'd point to the life rather than to the death#he's reading whatever you want him to#in my vision it's doughty#also not gonna lie sleeping in a coffin is metal af#back pain be damned

'Monday, 13th May 1935. It was a fine and calm early morning. By mid-morning the sun had warmed the heath to produce broken cumulus cloud accompanied by a moderate east to north-east breeze blowing in the clear air. Pat Knowles remembered, "he came across to my house earlier than usual. It was one of those bright, still, early spring mornings, and the bird-song, clear and vibrant in the still air, had awakened him soon after five, so, seeing the smoke from my fire he came across. "Whilst I was getting breakfast the postman came. Shaw opened his mail and said that [Henry] Williamson wanted to see him. Over breakfast we discussed his letter. Shaw felt that it would be as well to let him come as soon as possible as he might not have the time to spare later. I said why not the next day? He thought it a good idea, and so it was decided […]; he would go down later and send off a telegram telling him to come for lunch the following day… "After breakfast Shaw brought out the Brough and I heard him running it up. I guess that he was cleaning and polishing and servicing it. […] I was working in the garden and heard him leave and heard the sound of the Brough's engine all the way to Bovington."' ‘At precisely 11.25 a.m. a telegram was dictated and the Post Office assistant wrote it out and sent it to Henry Williamson:

'From the Post Office Lawrence walked the short distance back across the road to the Red Garage. Walt Pitman, the pump attendant, asked him if he needed any fuel; Lawrence replied, “I'm alright, thanks,” then he climbed on to his Brough...’
T.E. never made it home. On his return, he slammed on the brakes attempting an emergency stop, swerving to avoid two young cyclists, Albert Hargreaves and Frank Fletcher. He was thrown into the air --head first, wearing no helmet-- and landed just beyond his motorbike.

Images, top to bottom: Portrait by Reginald Sims at the White Cottage, Hornsea, February 1935; The telegram sent to Henry Williamson; Photograph by Bill Knowles of T.E. at Clouds Hill on 'George VII', GW2275 in summer 1934 (possibly the only image of him on this ill-fated bike).
The above paragraphs are an abridged excerpt from Chapter 12, 'On the 13th Day of May' of The Last Days of T.E. Lawrence: A Leaf in the Wind, Paul Marriott and Yvonne Argent, 2002, pp. 102-3.
I expect at least some of this chapter has been shared many times before, but I still felt compelled to copy it out again. I think about T.E. every day, but over the course of the next week or so, he will likely take over the entirety of my brain: dear, dear man.

Ayo tumblr wtf, why are you labelling my pg-13 illustrations as mature or needing content warning? Back in the day I posted flat out porn here and nobody batted an eyelash. Now I'm tame as a little lamb and you're being a bitch about it.

The final script by Terence Rattigan for the planned Rank-production of "Lawrence of Arabia" , 1957. Dirk Bogarde was to star as T.E. Lawrence but the project was abandoned. Rattigan later reworked his script into the successful play "Ross" - a dramatic portrait", which premiered in 1950. The script was auctioned off in 2024 at Sotheby's for 2160 GBP.
#the owner should digitize it for us commoners#they sitting on the book like a toad on a spring#knowledge behind paywall#damn 2k pounds 🥲#t.e. lawrence#terence rattigan
