The Grand Musical Festival in Gloucester Cathedral, 1850. Creator: Unknown

The Grand Musical Festival in Gloucester Cathedral, 1850....the effect of the interior - the nave, with its massive Norman columns and round arches, and the elegant choir receding in far-off perspective - is very fine. The nave...is plain and simple in its architectural features; the huge Norman pillars, with their unadorned capitals, and the slightly-enriched arches which they support; the triforia, and the clerestory windows above them, with the vaulting of the roof, being generally of severe, though admirable character. The clustered columns whence spring the vaulting-ribs are very fine features in the nave, and the corbels on which they rest are sculptured in grotesque forms. The choir-roof is marvellously fine, the vaulting being covered with a network of tracery...The organ-case is in the vile Gothic taste of the seventeenth century, and sadly mars the effect of the building'. From "Illustrated London News", 1850
