EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the awe-inspiring beauty of the Church of St Francis Of Assisi in Coventry, West Midlands. The image showcases the remarkable interior of this magnificent place of worship, specifically focusing on the ciborium canopy as viewed from the west. The architectural brilliance is evident in every detail, with intricate designs and ornate decorations adorning the walls and ceilings. The graceful arches create a sense of grandeur, drawing one's gaze towards the altar where serenity permeates through stained glass windows. Steven Baker's expert photography skillfully encapsulates both the historical significance and post-war resilience that define this sacred space. Despite enduring challenging times during World War II when much of Coventry was devastated by bombings, St Francis Of Assisi Church stands tall as a symbol of hope and faith. As we admire this photograph, we are reminded not only of its architectural splendor but also its spiritual importance to those who gather here for solace and prayer. It serves as a testament to human determination to rebuild and restore what was lost. Historic England has preserved this moment in time through Steven Baker's lens, allowing us to appreciate not just an exquisite piece of architecture but also an enduring symbol of strength and devotion within our community.
