A timer selfie with four people
and the Dome would have
been a great album cover for
a famous British band with
four people, IF there were
any great British bands with
four people.
A scene from the Apostle Paul's life.
(I don't know which scene it is.)
Honoring Christopher Wren on the floor
centered below the Dome. The quote
is "Si momumnetum requiris,
circumspice," which, as those of us
who can read Latin know, means
"If you seek his monument, look
around you,"
The Samuel Johnson statue.
This is the modern sculpture
of dreck I mentioned
in the above post.
It's okay if you like it.
Despite that error in
judgment we can
still be friends.
One of the smaller domes with
a Victorian Age glass mosaic.
Ditto.
Looking up at the corkscrew columns
for the altar canopy, with a glass
mosaic on the ceiling above.
"To The American Dead Of" and then
there are two more floor panels
that complete the thought in the
American Memorial Chapel.
Intricate work surrounds
the high altar.
Christopher Wren's tomb.
Back upstairs from the crypt to find
another homage to George Washington.
Part of the triangular stone pediment on
the facade of St. Paul. Part of the
scene where he struck blind on the
Road to Damascus.
The facade.
In the back churchyard,
a stately statue of Paul.
