San Francisco ~ Inside Grace Cathedral

The pipes to the Aeolian-Skinner Organ, the only one of it’s kind west of Chicago, heard in over 400 services and concerts each year.

Chapel of Grace, the oldest part of the cathedral features Connick windows, a 14th century Flemish altarpiece, and Lewis Hobart design.

 

The church is lined with different murals painted by renowned artists such as Antonio Sotomayor and John de Rosen. “Centennial Mural” shows the 1906 earthquake and the fire that destroyed the city, including Grace Church.

 

Photobucket is holding all my photos from 2007 to 2015 hostage and has replaced them all with ugly black and grey boxes asking for a ransom to have them re-published. Such a frustrating bother.

  1. Grace Cathedral is beautiful! I remember being there to hear my aunt play a concert on that magnificent organ. I don’t how many concerts she has done there. But I have been to at least one.

  2. WOW – I love every picture you have shown. The tapestry is simply gorgeous, together with everything else.

    I hope you have a great day at your parents’ tomorrow.

    Blessings! 🙂
