EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the exquisite beauty of "The Archangels" stained glass window, created by Carl Almquist in 1890. Located in the Church of All Saints in Pocklington, Yorkshire, UK, this masterpiece is a testament to the Arts and Crafts movement. The image showcases four archangels - Gabriel, Raphael, Uriel, and Michael - each depicted with their distinctive attributes. With vibrant colors and intricate details, their feathered wings spread wide as they stand guard with regal crowns upon their heads. Inscribed scrolls add an element of wisdom to the scene while haloes illuminate their divine presence. The pre-Raphaelite influence is evident through the bold use of color and attention to detail. Gabriel holds a quill symbolizing communication from heaven; Raphael carries a staff representing healing; Uriel grasps a scroll denoting knowledge; and Michael wields a sword signifying his role as protector. Surrounded by lilies that signify purity and annunciation scenes that depict significant biblical events, these archangels emanate strength and grace. Their haloed figures exude an aura of spirituality that transcends time. Alastair Carew-Cox's expert photography allows us to appreciate every nuance of this magnificent artwork. This print serves as a visual reminder of the power and symbolism behind religious iconography while showcasing the skillful craftsmanship inherent in stained glass artistry.
