EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: A Timeless Gothic Masterpiece: The Fitzalan Chapel, Arundel, Sussex (1920s) The Fitzalan Chapel, nestled in the heart of Arundel, Sussex, near Worthing, England, is a breathtaking testament to the rich history and architectural grandeur of medieval England. This evocative photograph, captured in the 1920s, showcases the chapel's exquisite Gothic architecture and the serene beauty of its surroundings. The Fitzalan Chapel, also known as the College Church of Our Lady and St Philip, was founded in 1398 by Richard Fitzalan, the 11th Earl of Arundel, to serve as the burial place for the powerful Fitzalan family. The chapel's striking design, characterized by its intricate stone carvings, pointed arches, and tall, slender windows, reflects the influence of the Perpendicular Gothic style that dominated English architecture during the late Middle Ages. The chapel's peaceful setting, surrounded by lush greenery and the tranquil waters of the River Arun, adds to its allure and mystique. The photograph captures the chapel in a soft, ethereal light, with the sun casting long, dappled shadows across its ancient walls. The scene is further enhanced by the presence of a few trees, their branches reaching out towards the chapel as if in a protective embrace. The Fitzalan Chapel has stood the test of time, bearing witness to centuries of history and serving as a reminder of the rich cultural heritage of Sussex and England as a whole. Today, it remains an enduring symbol of the past, a place of quiet reflection, and a source of inspiration for artists, historians, and visitors alike. This photograph, with its captivating image of the Fitzalan Chapel, invites us to explore the depths of its history and to marvel at the beauty and intricacy of its design. It is a window into the past, a glimpse into a time when the world moved at a slower pace, and a reminder of the enduring power of art and architecture to inspire and captivate us.
