EDITORS COMMENTS
The Cross and Orb: A Symbol of Reconciliation". In this powerful photo print, we witness a momentous occasion at Coventry Cathedral during a service of reconciliation on February 12th, 1999. The focal point is the awe-inspiring 18ft gilded steel and copper cross, meticulously crafted by Alan Smith. This magnificent piece of art is about to embark on an extraordinary journey as it will be formally presented to the people of Dresden in the coming year. The significance of this event cannot be overstated. It takes place on the eve of the anniversary commemorating a tragic two-day bombing raid over Dresden that claimed the lives of an estimated 30,000 individuals. As Cathedral provost, the Very Rev John Petty welcomes esteemed guests including Dr Herbert Wagner, Lord Mayor of Dresden, as well as dignitaries from Germany, United States, and Japan. This image encapsulates hope amidst darkness; it represents healing and forgiveness transcending borders and generations. The Cross and Orb stand not only as religious symbols but also as tangible reminders that humanity can overcome even its most devastating conflicts. As we gaze upon this photograph today, let us reflect on our shared history while embracing compassion for one another. May it serve as a poignant reminder that through acts of reconciliation like these, we can build bridges between nations and foster understanding among diverse cultures – ultimately paving the way for peace.
