St. Patrick's Cathedral

A Gothic masterpiece in the heart of Midtown — this fine art photograph of St. Patrick's Cathedral captures one of New York's most beloved and magnificent buildings in its full splendor, the great white marble facade rising above Fifth Avenue with a grace and authority that stops you in your tracks even after you've seen it a hundred times. Completed in 1878 and designed by James Renwick Jr. in the French Gothic style, St. Patrick's is the largest decorated Gothic Revival Catholic cathedral in North America, its twin spires rising 101 metres above Fifth Avenue directly opposite Rockefeller Center. The facade is a masterwork of Gothic Revival craftsmanship: the great central rose window, the deeply moulded pointed arches of the portals, the delicate tracery of the spires, and the gleaming white marble that seems to glow in the New York light. It is a building that holds its own against the skyscrapers that surround it — not by competing with them in scale, but by the sheer quality and conviction of its architecture. This photograph captures that quality with the care it deserves. Printed on Fuji Crystal Archive paper with optional acrylic glass or Alu-Dibond mounting for a gallery-quality finish.
