EDITORS COMMENTS
The Cloisters of Gloucester Cathedral, 1898: A Glimpse into Gothic Majesty Step back in time with this print capturing the ethereal beauty of the Great Cloister at Gloucester Cathedral. Taken in 1898 by an unknown creator, this image transports us to a bygone era, showcasing the architectural masterpiece designed between 1351 and 1377 by Thomas de Canterbury. The intricate fan vaults that adorn the ceiling are a testament to medieval craftsmanship, leaving viewers in awe of their grandeur even today. The play of light and shadow adds depth to the scene, creating a mesmerizing vista that beckons exploration. In this snapshot from history, we catch glimpses of people strolling through the cloisters – men and women alike – immersed in their own thoughts or perhaps marveling at the spiritual significance surrounding them. Their presence adds life to an otherwise empty space, reminding us that these hallowed halls have long been places for contemplation and solace. Gloucester Cathedral itself stands as a symbol of Christianity's enduring influence on British culture. Its rich history is intertwined with literature and art; it has served as inspiration for countless writers throughout centuries past. As we gaze upon this remarkable engraving from 'Our Own Country', Volume II (Cassell and Company Ltd. , London), we are transported not only to Gloucestershire but also back through time. It serves as both a reminder of our heritage and an invitation to explore further into Britain's architectural treasures.
