EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Eric de Mare showcases the awe-inspiring interior of King's College Chapel in Cambridge. The focal point of the image is undoubtedly the majestic organ, which stands proudly on the screen dividing the chapel and ante-chapel. Built in 1605, with a case crafted by Chapman and Hartop, this musical instrument exudes a sense of grandeur and importance. As one's gaze moves beyond the organ, another remarkable feature comes into view - the rib vaulting of the chapel ceiling. The intricate design and craftsmanship are evident in every curve and detail, adding to the overall splendor of this sacred space. Eric de Mare expertly captures both these elements in his photograph, allowing us to appreciate their beauty even from afar. The composition draws our attention to these architectural marvels while also providing a glimpse into the vastness and serenity that permeate throughout Kings College Chapel. Dating back between 1945-1980, this print serves as a testament to De Mare's skillful eye for capturing historical landmarks with precision and artistry. It invites viewers to immerse themselves in an era where music resonated through these hallowed halls, where decorative details adorned every corner, and where ceilings reached towards heaven itself.
