New Baptist Chapel, Leicester, 1845. Creator: Unknown
New Baptist Chapel, Leicester, 1845. The new Chapel is from the design of Mr. Joseph Hansom, Architect of the Birmingham Town Hall. It is circular in plan, with galleries and the other fittings peculiar to that religious body. The mode in which the light is admitted, though somewhat novel as applied to places of worship, is found to be highly efficient, and to produce a very agreeable effect...The main Chapel will accommodate about 1, 500 persons. There are also a Lecture room and School-room...In the evening, an admirable and appropriate sermon was preached ty Dr. Cox, from the words, " This is none other than the House of God, and this is the gate of Heaven." The Chapel was again full, and, lighted up with gas, presented a brilliant appearance. Upwards of £ 60 was collected at the close of the service. The total of collections was £ 760.. From " Illustrated London News", 1845, Vol VII

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur of the New Baptist Chapel in Leicester, England, dating back to 1845. Designed by Mr. Joseph Hansom, renowned architect of the Birmingham Town Hall, this circular chapel stands as a testament to neoclassical architecture. With its galleries and unique fittings tailored to the Baptist religious body, this chapel can accommodate up to 1,500 worshippers. The innovative design allows ample natural light to flood through its unconventional openings, creating a pleasant ambiance within. The significance of this place of worship is evident from the evening sermon delivered by Dr. Cox on that particular day. Quoting "This is none other than the House of God, and this is the gate of Heaven" his words resonated with those present in attendance. As darkness fell upon Leicester's streets, gas lights illuminated the chapel's interior for an awe-inspiring sight. The brilliance was not limited to visuals alone; generous contributions totaling £760 were collected during services held at this remarkable establishment. Published in "Illustrated London News" in 1845, this engraving showcases not only architectural excellence but also highlights Victorian-era religiosity and community spirit. Preserved through time by The Print Collector's meticulous care for historical artifacts like these photographs, it serves as a window into Britain's rich cultural heritage. This image invites us to appreciate both artistry and faith intertwined within one frame—a testament to human creativity and devotion that continues to inspire generations even today.
