Saint Paul's Cathedral

.

a detail from the eastern end of the cathedral which was designed by Sir Christopher Wren after the previous Cathedral burned down in the Great Fire of London in 1666 . The new building was declared officially complete in 1710 and was the tallest building in London until 1962.

  1. Gorgeous details. Tallest until 1962? Wow. I'm amazed London didn't have any taller until then.

    Wishing you and your family a peaceful and love-filled 2010.
