EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print showcases the intricately carved ceiling boss from The Black Princes Chantry in Canterbury Cathedral, England. Dating back to the 14th century, this architectural masterpiece is a testament to the rich history of this renowned cathedral. The Fair Maid of Kent, Joan of Kent (1328-1385), is depicted in this exquisite carving. Joan, who was known for her beauty, was the mother of King Richard II of England. The Black Princes Chantry was established during Joan's marriage to the Black Prince, Edward of Woodstock, in the late 1300s. In the 16th century, the Crypt of the Chantry was given over to Huguenot refugees from France and Flanders by Queen Elizabeth I. Three centuries later, in the 19th century, the Crypt was taken back, but the Chantry remained at the disposal of the Huguenot community. To this day, a French Service is held every Sunday at 3pm in the Huguenot Chapel, preserving the historical connection between this English cathedral and the French Huguenots. The photograph, taken in the 1910s, offers a rare glimpse into the architectural detail and intricacy of this 14th-century ceiling boss. The delicate carvings and ornate designs showcase the skill and craftsmanship of the artisans of the time. This photograph is a reminder of the rich history and cultural significance of The Black Princes Chantry and its connection to both English and French history.
