EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the year 1951, where Master Carpenter Mr Puffett is meticulously putting the finishing touches to a skirting. With utmost precision and skill, he carefully carves intricate details onto the wood, using a 400-year-old carving as his model. This remarkable craftsmanship takes place within the hallowed walls of Manchester Cathedral, a medieval church located on Victoria Street in central Manchester. The restored Manchester Regiment chapel screens serve as a testament to both Mr Puffett's expertise and the dedication of those involved in preserving historical treasures. As he delicately wields his chisels, one can almost feel the reverence that permeates through this sacred space. Manchester Cathedral itself holds great significance as it serves as the seat of the Bishop of Manchester. Its official name is The Cathedral and Collegiate Church of St Mary, St Denys and St George in Manchester – an embodiment of faith and devotion for countless worshippers throughout history. This photograph encapsulates not only an era but also showcases timeless traditions passed down from generation to generation. It reminds us of how artistry intertwines with religion and architecture; creating spaces that inspire awe and contemplation. J Gill's lens has captured a moment frozen in time – an homage to craftsmanship, spirituality, and heritage that continues to resonate even today.
