EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite interior of St. Peters Church in Newcastle upon Tyne, a true testament to English architecture and religious heritage. Painted by the talented artist John Wilson Carmichael, this oil on paper masterpiece measures 72.2x59.2 cm and is currently housed at the Laing Art Gallery in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, UK. The image captures the grandeur of St. Peters Church, which stood proudly on Oxford Street at the junction with Ellison Place until its unfortunate demolition around 1933. Designed by renowned architect John Dobson in a neo-Gothic style, this church was initially built as a chapel of St. Andrews but gained independence in 1844. As we gaze upon this painting, our eyes are drawn to the majestic columns that line the nave, creating an atmosphere of reverence and awe within these hallowed walls. The meticulously detailed pews stand ready to accommodate up to 1,134 worshippers who sought solace and spiritual guidance within these sacred grounds. Though now lost to time and progress, this artwork serves as a poignant reminder of an architectural gem that once graced Newcastle's skyline. It allows us to appreciate not only its physical beauty but also its historical significance as part of England's rich ecclesiastical heritage. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' preservation efforts and eTyne & Wear Archives & Museums' dedication to sharing cultural treasures with the world, we can still marvel at Carmichael's skillful brushstrokes
