DescriptionPostcard of Henry VII's Lady Chapel in Westminster Abbey. The view is taken looking north towards the stalls of the Knights Grand Cross of the Order of the Bath, and the altar. The view takes in the full height of the chapel, including the colourful standards above the stalls, and part of the fan vaulted roof. The caption on the reverse of the card reads: 'Built in 1503 by order of Henry VII. Since 1725 Knights Grand Cross of the Order of the Bath have been installed in the Chapel. The 46 stalls for the above are on both sides of the Chapel Nave; each Stall has the silk banner and armorial bearing of the present holder'. Postcard published by J. Arthur Dixon in the Natural Colour Photogravure series.
