EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the intricately carved effigy of Henry Caesar, Dean of Ely Cathedral, lying in repose within the hallowed walls of the historic English cathedral. The image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to the 17th century and the time of Dean Caesar, who served as the Dean of Ely from 1611 until his death in 1636. Dean Caesar was a man of great learning and piety, known for his dedication to the Church and his scholarly pursuits. He was a respected figure in the community and played a significant role in the administration of the cathedral during a time of great change and upheaval. The effigy, which can be found in the Lady Chapel of Ely Cathedral, is a testament to the craftsmanship and artistry of the time. The intricate details of Dean Caesar's robes, his serene expression, and the delicate carving of his hands in prayer all serve to bring the figure to life, offering a tangible connection to the man who once held this important position. Buried beneath the effigy, Dean Caesar rests in peace, surrounded by the beauty and history of Ely Cathedral. The photograph captures not only the beauty and intricacy of the effigy itself, but also the sense of history and tradition that surrounds it. The image invites us to reflect on the past and the important role that figures like Dean Caesar played in shaping the history of the Church and the community of Ely.
