EDITORS COMMENTS
Great image capturing Liverpool Cathedral in its incomplete state as seen from the air in 1949. This iconic Anglican Cathedral, located in Liverpool, England, was initiated in 1904 with a design by Sir Giles Gilbert Scott. The construction of the tower was completed in 1942, but the cathedral's grand nave and west front were still under development at this time. The aerial perspective offers a unique view of the cathedral's progress, revealing the extensive scale of the project and the vast open space that surrounded it. The image also showcases the urban landscape of Liverpool in the late 1940s, with a few buildings and roads visible in the surrounding area. Giles Gilbert Scott's design for Liverpool Cathedral was inspired by the Early Christian and Byzantine architectural styles, featuring a double-decker nave and a unique circular crypt. The cathedral's construction faced numerous challenges, including funding issues and the destruction of the original foundation due to subsidence. These challenges led to the project's prolonged completion, which wasn't achieved until 1978, over 70 years after its inception. Despite the delay, Liverpool Cathedral remains a significant architectural and spiritual landmark in the city, attracting visitors from around the world. This historical photograph from the Aerofilms Collection, now part of Historic England's archives, offers a fascinating glimpse into the cathedral's development and the Liverpool skyline of the past.
