Church Detail


I went for a walk today past yesterday's church and thought that I would show you some of the details of the brick work and carvings. This pic is taken looking up the left side of the steeple to the gorgeous blue sky we have today. Love that carving! Enlarge to see it better.

  4. Gorgeous, that carving is just stunning. While it is an art that isn't lost, it is certainly one that is so cost prohibitive you sadly don't see much of it any more.

  6. Don't recall seeing a carving decorating the base end of a column like that before, most unusual. Great find.

  7. It looks very unusual. Brick buildings are not usually that fancy, in my experience.

  8. Compared to most of the buildings constructed today ... well, generally, the same amount of attention to detail is not a requisite...but it's those details like this carving that help to make a structure "timeless." Also, I think the pattern of the brick and in the brick give the building a distinctive and unique feel. It's truly lovely!
