image: The west facade of Rheims Cathedral during daytime with a north light casting shadows from the shops and apartment
buildings to the left of the composition. The gothic cathedral itself is shown complete, with stained glass in the central rose window,
prior to bombardment, the lower entrance pillars protected by sandbags. In front of the building before the steps stands a small public
sculpture, a figure with one arm upraised, the base surrounded by railings. To the left of the composition on the opposite side of the
street stands a row of shops. | Publisher: | http://www.iwm.org.uk | Subjects: | 01/3(4-15) memorial Religion air raid precautions / shelters Architecture | Source: | Imperial War Museum | Creator: | Bertin | Identifier: | http://www.iwm.org.uk/collections/item/o... | Go to resource |
