Last Mother's Day was a terribly exciting time - my family told me to buy new roses for my garden, as a present. And so I ordered some striped roses and David Austins (fifteen, actually). One of these is the pretty pastel Lichfield Angel.

An unusual medieval practice at Lichfield was the 'concealed' commemorative effigy, wherein two carved blocks were inserted into the wall to represent the head and feet of the deceased, an illusion suggesting their entire recumbent figure was entombed in the wall rather than the usual complete effigy. Three of these figures survive in the cathedral today, generally in poor condition, like this one in the south aisle of the nave. Lichfield is our best known three-spired cathedral, and one I have visited many times over the years (both for business and pleasure). The cathedral suffered more than most during the Civil War when the Close was besieged (twice) and the central spire shot down (the aftermath of which is memorably conjured in one of Kempe's windows). As a result of this (and the soft red sandstone) the cathedral has been heavily restored and nearly all the furnishings are Victorian, but there are some notable tombs and monuments, and every time I come here I seem to notice more medieval survivals of some kind in various corners. This was my first visit since the Lady Chapel's vast swathes of Flemish glass was spirited up to York for restoration, and it'll be a couple more years before it returns. Meanwhile this normally rather dark interior has brightened up with clear glazing, suggesting the kind of atmosphere the cathedral must have had in pre-Victorian days when there was virtually no stained glass.
