EDITORS COMMENTS
A Sea of Steps -- Wells Cathedral (image 1 of 3), 1903" is a stunning photograph taken by the renowned British photographer Frederick Henry Evans. This iconic image captures the intricate and grand staircase leading up to the entrance of Wells Cathedral in England. Wells Cathedral, a masterpiece of Gothic architecture, is one of the most beautiful and historic churches in Europe. Built between the 12th and 15th centuries, the cathedral is renowned for its ornate stone carvings, stunning stained glass windows, and impressive architecture. Evans, a pioneer in the field of architectural photography, captured the essence of the cathedral's grandeur and intricacy in this photograph. The image showcases the staircase, which winds its way up to the entrance, creating a sense of depth and perspective. The steps, bathed in soft light, appear to stretch on endlessly, leading the viewer's eye upwards towards the heavens. The photograph was taken in 1903 and is a platinum print, a photographic printing process that produces rich tones and a high level of detail. The use of black and white adds to the timeless and ethereal quality of the image, making it a true work of art. This photograph is a testament to Evans's skill as a photographer and his ability to capture the beauty and grandeur of architectural structures. It is a must-see for anyone interested in photography, architecture, or the history of religion and Christianity. Today, this photograph is part of the collection of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where it continues to inspire and captivate audiences. The image is a reminder of the power of photography to transport us to another time and place, and to remind us of the beauty and wonder of the world around us.
