Sylvia Plath (almost 24 years old) with her husband Ted Hughes and his parents Edith and William Hughes in front of their house "The Beacon" in Heptonstall, England, in September 1956.

...

During this visit, Plath wrote to her mother, Aurelia Schober Plath, on 2 September 1956:

"I wish you could see your daughter now, a veritable convert to the Brontë clan, in warm woollen sweaters, slacks, knee socks, with a steaming mug of coffee, sitting upstairs in Ted's room, looking out of three huge windows over an incredible wild green landscape of bare hills, crisscrossed by innumerable black stone walls like a spider's web, in which gray, woolly sheep graze, and chickens and dappled brown-and-white cows; a wicked north wind is whipping a blowing rain against the little house and coal fires are glowing; this is the most magnificent landscape in the world: incredible hills, bare grass and vivid green, with amazing deep creviced valleys, feathered with trees, at the bottom of which clear peat-flavored streams run. Climbing along the ridges of the hills, one has an airplane view of the towns in the valleys; up here it is like sitting on top of the world, and in the distance the purple moors curve away; I have never been so happy in my life; it is wild and lovely and a perfect place to work and read. I am basically I think, a nature-loving recluse. Ted and I are at last “home”."

--from The Letters of Sylvia Plath Volume I: 1940 – 1956

Heptonstall West Yorkshire | Limited edition fine art print from an original drawing. My sketches start life as hand-drawn graphite images made on cartridge paper. I often work on these with charcoal, oil pastel or Caran d'Ache to create the look I'm after. The artwork is then scanned and finessed digitally ready for fine art printing. This process often referred to as Giclée printing uses the highest standard of printing methods to give gallery quality results that maintain all the details of the original sketch. The graphite pencils I use are Faber-Castel, the oil pastels are Sennelier and the china-graph is Caran d’Ache. The inks are pigment based archive quality (100years+). The heavyweight specialist papers I use are of the best professional quality having a wonderful surface designed specifically for fine art drawings and illustrations. Very limited editions with only ten per size printed. All artwork is signed and includes a certificate of authenticity.

Heptonstall. Strange light this morning. At one point, very bright and sunny. Dark clouds overhead (which I seemed to have captured at this moment) and then a light rain. Doesn’t dampen the splendour of Heptonstall however. #fujixs10 #fujifilmxs10 #fujifilmxf1655mm #fujifilmxseries #repostmyfujifilm #heptonstall #calderdale #streetphotography #landscapephotography #scenicbritain #scenicyorkshire #yorkshire #yorkshirephotographer https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp8DKMoIYUb/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
