Wells Cathedral's "Magnum Opus" Lower Panel "Gradual"
2003
The Illumination was taken from the Lady Chapel tiled floor, whilst the Latin text featured is a gradual (plain chant No.5) by the baroque composer Gregorio Allegri
The painting is currently on a four year tour and will return to the Bishops Palace at Wells in 2010.
The Latin text is from the Bible; from Psalm 107 verses 32 and 31 in the Old Testament and from Matthew chapter 16 verse 18 in the New Testament :
Ps 107:32 - Exaltent eum in ecclesia plebis et in cathedra seniorum laudent eum
Let them exalt him also in the church/congregation of the people, and praise him in the chair/assembly of the elders.
Ps 106:31 - Confiteantur Domino misericor diae eius et mirabilia eius filiis hominum
Let the mercies of the Lord give glory to him, and his wonderful works to the children of men.
Alleluia (A shout or song of praise to God)
Matt 16:18 - Tu es Petrus, et super hanc petram aedificabo Ecclesiam meam.
Thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build My Church.
Alleluia (A shout or song of praise to God)
