EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the 13th century, offering a mesmerizing view of the exterior of Beauvais Cathedral in France. The image, captured by French School photographer Peter Willi, beautifully showcases the architectural marvels that make this cathedral an iconic masterpiece. The photograph highlights several key elements of Gothic architecture that define Beauvais Cathedral's grandeur. The intricate entrance portal draws our attention with its ornate details and exquisite craftsmanship. Above it, we are immediately drawn to the magnificent rose window, radiating delicate tracery patterns and allowing ethereal light to filter through. The flying buttresses gracefully extend from the walls, providing structural support while adding an elegant touch to the overall design. They serve as a testament to medieval engineering ingenuity and contribute to the cathedral's soaring height. In this snapshot, we also catch a glimpse of the choir section nestled within the cathedral's vast interior space. Its high vaulted ceilings create a sense of awe-inspiring verticality that is characteristic of Gothic architecture. Peter Willi's expert composition captures not only these architectural features but also evokes a sense of tranquility and reverence associated with sacred spaces like Beauvais Cathedral. This print serves as both a visual delight for art enthusiasts and history lovers alike - transporting us across centuries into one of France's most treasured cultural landmarks.
