Description
The English Cathedral brings together 42 magnificent Anglican cathedrals in England, each one a symbol of spiritual and architectural power. Magnum photographer Peter Marlow's breathtaking images capture the full splendour of these buildings at dawn, using natural light to reveal intricate details. Marlow's journey began with a commission from the Royal Mail for photographs of six cathedrals, which sparked his desire to explore each of England's 42 Anglican cathedrals. Approaching the Dean and Chapter of each cathedral, he gained permission to enter the buildings in the early hours of the morning, using only natural light to illuminate his shots. This stunning book showcases Marlow's unique approach to photography, revealing the beauty and history of these iconic structures.
