EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment frozen in time, showcasing the artistry of stonemasonry amidst the backdrop of Coventry Cathedral. The image transports us back to the 1950s, where three dedicated builders can be seen diligently working on a section of the baptistery window. Their focused expressions and skilled hands tell a story of craftsmanship and dedication. In the foreground, we are presented with an array of stones belonging to the window, each one meticulously chosen for its unique shape and texture. These stones serve as a testament to the intricate process involved in creating such architectural marvels. As our gaze shifts towards the background, we catch sight of the towering silhouette of the old cathedral. Its presence serves as a reminder of history's enduring legacy, juxtaposed against these modern efforts to rebuild and restore Coventry Cathedral after its destruction during World War II. This powerful image was catalogued as part of the Breaking New Ground Project in partnership with the John Laing Charitable Trust in 2019-20. It not only showcases remarkable craftsmanship but also pays homage to those who dedicated their skills and labor to breathe life into this iconic structure once again.
