EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning detail of Archangel Uriel, captured in 1882 by the talented artist Henry Holiday. The stained glass artwork is located in St Michaels Church, nestled in the picturesque Muncaster village of Cumbria, UK. The image beautifully portrays the essence of the Arts and Crafts movement and aestheticism that prevailed during this era. Archangel Uriel appears with majestic wings spread wide, his idealized figure emanating an aura of divine grace. His golden hair cascades down as if touched by celestial light, while a star shines brightly above his head. The Victorian influence is evident through the intricate details and vibrant colors found within this pre-Raphaelite masterpiece. The midnight blue backdrop serves as a striking contrast to Uriel's ethereal beauty, emphasizing his significance as an angelic being. As we gaze upon this stylized representation, it becomes apparent that religion plays a central role in its creation. A halo encircles Uriel's head, symbolizing his holiness and heavenly status among angels. Alastair Carew-Cox skillfully captures every nuance of this extraordinary stained glass window through photography. This remarkable piece not only evokes admiration for its artistic merit but also invites contemplation on spirituality and divinity.
