EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the grandeur and beauty of the inside of the church of Saint Bruno in Lyon, France. Built by the Carthusian people in two stages, this architectural masterpiece showcases their craftsmanship and devotion to creating a sacred space. The first stage of construction focused on building the choir between 1590 and 1604. This section sets the tone for what lies ahead, with its intricate details and ornate design. The second stage involved constructing the transept and nave between 1735 and 1750 under F. Delamonce's guidance. These additions complemented the existing structure seamlessly, creating a harmonious blend of styles. One cannot help but be awestruck by the exceptional decoration found within this church. The baroque canopy, created in 1738 by Jean Nicolas Servandony, stands as a testament to his skill as an artist. Its presence adds an extra layer of grandeur to an already magnificent interior. Photographer Leonard de Selva expertly captured every detail in this image from his visit to Lyon in 2008. The vibrant colors bring life to every corner of this sacred space, allowing viewers to appreciate its splendor even from afar. This photograph serves as a reminder that artistry can be found not only on canvas but also within architecture itself. It is a testament to human creativity and dedication throughout history—a visual feast for those who appreciate both art and religious heritage alike.
