Ely Cathedral - A Grotesque,
EDITORS COMMENTS
captured by the renowned English photographer Frederick Henry Evans in 1903, is a mesmerizing black and white halftone print that invites viewers to delve into the intricate world of Ely Cathedral's gargoyles and grotesques. Evans, a pioneer in the field of artistic photography, expertly showcases the architectural and artistic beauty of these intricately carved stone faces that adorn the exterior of this historic Anglican cathedral in Ely, Cambridgeshire, England. The photograph, now held in the collection of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), transports us back in time to the early 20th century, a period when the Gothic Revival movement was gaining popularity. The close-up perspective of the image offers a unique and intimate view of the human-like faces, their grotesque features softened by the subtle tonal variations of the halftone print. The image's title, "A Grotesque," alludes to the medieval tradition of incorporating grotesque figures into architectural designs as a means of warding off evil spirits and ensuring the protection of the building and its occupants. The term "grotesque" also implies a sense of the strange, the unusual, and the fantastical, making this photograph an intriguing exploration of the intersection between art, religion, and the human imagination. Evans' masterful use of light and shadow, as well as his ability to capture the intricacies of the stone carvings, make "Ely Cathedral: A Grotesque" a timeless work of art that continues to captivate and inspire viewers today. The photograph serves as a testament to the enduring power of photography to transport us to new worlds, to challenge our perceptions, and to deepen our appreciation for the beauty and complexity of the world around us.
