EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative late Victorian photograph captures the breathtaking interior of The Choir in Exeter Cathedral, looking east. Dating back to the 1890s, this image transports us back in time to an era of intricate Gothic architecture and devotional reverence. The Choir, with its ornate stonework and richly colored stained glass windows, stands as a testament to the craftsmanship and artistic vision of the past. The long, narrow space is filled with rows of wooden pews, their worn surfaces bearing the marks of countless worshippers over the centuries. At the far end, the magnificent east lantern casts a warm, golden light over the altar, creating an ethereal glow that seems to lift the very spirits of those who enter. The Choir's intricate details come alive in this photograph, from the delicate carvings adorning the arches to the intricate patterns of the stonework. The stained glass windows, a riot of color and light, add an otherworldly quality to the scene, their vibrant hues reflecting off the polished surfaces of the pews. This photograph is a rare glimpse into the past, offering us a glimpse of the beauty and grandeur of Exeter Cathedral during the late Victorian era. It invites us to pause and reflect on the enduring power of faith and the awe-inspiring artistry of the past.
