Summary[edit]

Description
English: The reredos of St Cuthbert's Church. Philbeach Gardens, London, England. The overwhelmingly dominant note in this church is struck by the immense reredos, designed by Rev. Ernest Geldart in 1899 and realised by Boulton (with the carvers Taylor and Clifton) in 1913-14. Inspired by medieval Spanish altarpieces, it forms a 50-foot cliff of carved woodwork in a flamboyant late-Gothic style, organised architecturally into a broad centrepiece flanked by great octagonal turrets and side panels. The sculptural programme, fittingly enough for a church of this character, concerns the worship of the Incarnate God with incense and lights. The centre panel shows Our Lord with censing angels and the symbols of the four evangelists; the other panels depict appropriate biblical scenes with accompanying text; the turrets contain statues of the four Latin Doctors and the four major Prophets, along with numerous smaller figures of saints; and the whole is crowned by a representation of the Virgin and Child in glory with angel attendants
