Chichester cathedral

In Chichester, south of England, I found some interesting calligraphy panels. Some were produced during the period of English iconoclasm, when there were no pictures in churches but calligraphy panels would be framed like painted pictures. There are dates on each panel (just in case someone wandered when was this period of iconoclasm).






There is a book available, based on this blog.  


On the blog there is, so to speak, more room, one can show more illustrations there. Blogs, however, come and go, there is no certainty that it will be there ten years from now. The book, on the other hand, once you acquire it, will last, one can be sure of that.
