'St. Paul's Dome Brooding Over The Roof-Tops of Amen Court', c1935. Creator: Donald McLeish.
'St. Paul's Dome Brooding Over The Roof-Tops of Amen Court', c1935. The garden at Amen Corner, 17th-century houses built for the clergymen of St Paul's Cathedral in London. The buildings were so named because on the feastday of Corpus Christi, monks would recite the Lord's Prayer in a procession to the Cathedral, reaching the final 'amen' as they turned the corner in Ave Maria Lane. From "Wonderful London, Volume 1", edited by Arthur St John Adcock. [The Fleetway House, London, c1935]
