EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning stained glass artwork, titled "Christ Attended By Angels" captures the essence of religious devotion and beauty. Created in 1886 by Henry Holiday, a renowned artist of the Arts and Crafts movement, this piece is located at St Mary Magdalene in Mortehoe, Exeter. The vibrant colors and intricate details bring to life the scene from the New Testament where Christ is surrounded by angels. The aestheticism and idealized portrayal reflect the Victorian era's fascination with religious themes and spirituality. The stained glass window showcases James Powell & Sons' exceptional craftsmanship, known for their expertise in creating exquisite stained glass pieces. Each angel depicted carries an expression that conveys both passion and suffering, emphasizing Christ's sacrifice for humanity. As light passes through this masterpiece, it illuminates the space with a bright glow that symbolizes hope and divine presence. The composition evokes a sense of reverence as viewers are transported into a world where faith intertwines with artistry. This pre-Raphaelite-inspired artwork serves as a reminder of Christianity's enduring impact on society while showcasing the timeless beauty found within religious art. It stands as a testament to both Holiday's artistic skill and his deep connection to his faith. Alastair Carew-Cox has captured this extraordinary print faithfully, allowing us to appreciate its intricate details even if we cannot witness it firsthand.
