Wall paintings in All Saints, Cambridge

The scale of All Saints' church and the extent of the Arts and Crafts style decor can be seen in this image which looks up at the wall paintings, stained glass of the East window and the quire canopy above. This church was designed by architect George Bodley (1827 – 1907) and the interior by William Morris (1834 – 1896). Morris was a founding member of the Arts and Crafts movement, which looked to nature, medieval life and historical figures for inspiration and combined beauty with functionality. These influences can be seen throughout the church.
