EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures the historic moment of the Installation of the New Archbishop in Canterbury Cathedral. The focal point of the image is the Archbishop himself, seated majestically in the renowned Marble Chair. This significant event took place in 1883 and was documented for posterity by The Illustrated London News. The atmosphere within Canterbury Cathedral is palpable with a sense of reverence and grandeur as clergy members from various religious orders gather to witness this sacred ceremony. Dressed in their ornate robes, priests, imams, and clergymen stand alongside each other, representing different faiths united under one roof. Edward Benson, the newly appointed Archbishop at that time, assumes his rightful position on this symbolic seat of power. His presence exudes authority and spirituality as he prepares to take on his religious role with utmost dedication. The installation ceremony itself signifies a pivotal moment not only for Edward Benson but also for Kent and its community. It marks a new chapter in their spiritual journey as they entrust their faith to this esteemed figurehead. This engraving serves as a testament to the enduring significance of religion across cultures and centuries. It reminds us that despite our differences, we can come together through shared beliefs and values. As we gaze upon this historical print from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are transported back in time to witness an extraordinary event that continues to resonate today.
