"Interior of the Dom, Lubeck", by Samuel Read, in the exhibition of the Society of Painters in Water Colours, 1862. Engraving of a painting. Among other interesting foreign church interiors by this gentleman exhibited at Pall-mall the "Interior of the Dom, or the Cathedral, of Lubeck" has the recommendation to many, even old, Continental travellers of unfamiliarity. Lubeck is, nevertheless, one of the most picturesque old towns in Germany, and deserves more attention than is usually given to it by travellers. The brick-built Dom still witnesses to the former importance of the Imperial free city, its side chapels containing the monuments of many of the patrician families of Lubeck, and the choir tombs of numerous Bishops and Canons. The portraits of two of the old burgesses hang on the flanking walls in our Engraving. The rood-loft between these is very interesting, with its elaborately-carved crucifix, kneeling effigies of the patron and patroness, and numerous other images, of various size, of saints, and canonised sinners too, probably, some of them. The screen of the choir is considered one of the best existing specimens of wood-carving of the Early German school, about the time of Lucas Cranach'. From "Illustrated London News", 1862

EDITORS COMMENTS
"This engraving depicts the Interior of the Dom, or Cathedral, of Lübeck, as painted by Samuel Read and exhibited at the Society of Painters in Water Colours in 1862. Lübeck, a picturesque old town in Germany, is often overlooked by travellers, yet its brick-built Dom stands as a testament to its former significance as an Imperial free city. The side chapels of the cathedral hold the monuments of numerous patrician families of Lübeck, as well as the choir tombs of various bishops and canons. Two old burgesses are depicted on the flanking walls in the engraving. The rood-loft between them is particularly intriguing, with its elaborately-carved crucifix, kneeling effigies of the patron and patroness, and numerous other images of saints and possibly even canonised sinners. The screen of the choir is considered one of the finest surviving examples of wood-carving from the Early German school, around the time of Lucas Cranach." Mason Jackson's painting of the Interior of the Dom, Lübeck, captured the attention of many, including those with previous Continental travel experience, at the Society of Painters in Water Colours exhibition in 1862. The cathedral's unique beauty and historical significance are showcased in this engraving, providing a glimpse into the rich history and artistry of Lübeck.
