Painting Description
"Drawings of the Lantern of St. Paul's Cathedral, for St. Paul's Cathedral, London, Measured, Drawn and Described" is a significant architectural work published in 1927 by Arthur F. E. Poley. This publication provides an in-depth and meticulous examination of the lantern structure atop St. Paul's Cathedral, one of London's most iconic landmarks. St. Paul's Cathedral, designed by Sir Christopher Wren, is renowned for its majestic dome and has been a central feature of the London skyline since its completion in the early 18th century.
Arthur F. E. Poley's work stands out for its detailed architectural drawings and precise measurements, offering valuable insights into the design and construction of the lantern, which is a critical element of the cathedral's overall structure. The lantern, a smaller, often ornate structure situated atop the dome, serves both aesthetic and functional purposes, contributing to the cathedral's grandeur and allowing light to penetrate the interior spaces.
Poley's publication is not merely a collection of drawings; it is also a descriptive account that contextualizes the lantern within the broader architectural and historical framework of St. Paul's Cathedral. By providing comprehensive descriptions alongside the measured drawings, Poley enables readers and researchers to appreciate the intricacies of Wren's design and the craftsmanship involved in its execution.
The 1927 publication is an invaluable resource for historians, architects, and enthusiasts of ecclesiastical architecture, offering a rare glimpse into the detailed planning and artistry that characterize one of London's most celebrated buildings. Through his meticulous documentation, Arthur F. E. Poley has contributed significantly to the preservation and understanding of St. Paul's Cathedral's architectural heritage.
