St. Patrick’s Cathedral
$65.00Architecture has been called "the mother of all the arts," and Saint Patrick's Cathedral, on the corner of New York's Fifth Avenue and 51st Street, is a masterpiece of the decorated and geometric style of Gothic ecclesiastical architecture as well as one of the structural wonders of New York City. The Cathedral is noted for its purity of style, originality of design, harmony of proportions, beauty of material, and workmanship. It is existing proof that American architects and American artisans can hold their own with the architects and artisans of the Old World and that Catholics of America can raise sacred structures that captivate and cultivate the admiration of those who see it.
Master sculptor Ovidin Colea captures the soaring, symmetrical composition, the beauty and grace that dominated the midtown skyline when it was completed in 1879. His 11-inch-high scaled replica is an extraordinary work of art in its own right, cast from two pounds of banded marble and coated with a hand-painted metallic finish. Crafted in New York City.
