EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic interior of Westminster Abbey, as seen from the west entrance. The photograph, taken by Frederick Henry Evans, showcases the remarkable Gothic architecture that has made this iconic British landmark renowned worldwide. Westminster Abbey's rich history dates back to the 14th century when King Henry III initiated its construction in 1245. It took nearly 150 years for the building of the nave to be completed in 1375. The impressive West Window, which adorns this grand space, was designed by Sir James Thornhill and dates back to 1735.
