Gargoyle, Ely
Cathedral Platinum print, 22.5 x 68 cm, by Frederick H. Evans, 1897–1900 J.P Getty Museum |
||||||||||
| One of the grotesque faces that peer down from the shadowed stone recesses tucked into the nave triforium and corbel tables of Ely Cathedral. They serve as spiritual sentinels and moral reminders, embodying grotesque or fantastical imagery designed to provoke reflection, awe, and even caution. |
