New Alabaster Screen, in Ely Cathedral, 1854. Creator: Unknown

New Alabaster Screen, in Ely Cathedral, 1854. Illustration of the...new Altar-screen (now in course of erection), which has been designed by Mr. G. G. Scott; the centre, over the altar-table being of alabaster, and the wings of stone. The subjects are from the Life of Our Saviour: in the centre, the Last Supper, the Entry into Jerusalem, Washing the Disciples Feet, the Agony in the Garden, and Bearing the Cross. At the opening of the tabernacle work are Angels, holding emblems of the Crucifixion; and in the centre, and crowning the canopies, is Christ, with Moses and Elias. By a judicious treatment of the Evangelistic symbols in the crocheting of the four side gables, a reference has been sustained between this ornamentation and the figures of the Evangelists which surmount these gables. The twisted pillars are enriched by mosaic work of coloured pebbles...'. From "Illustrated London News", 1854
