Canterbury Cathedral ceramic tile and easel is by Emily Ward, an artist from the North East. This art gift is produced locally in her studio near Newcastle.
Radiant sunshine lights up the morning sky over Canterbury Cathedral on Emily Ward's art gift. Beautiful oranges and reds cast a lovely golden glimmer over the Gothic architecture.
Dainty little flowers add a softness to the imposing building which Emily has also speckled with a pop of colour.

Canterbury Cathedral
St Augustine was sent by Pope Gregory the Great, and arrived in Canterbury
around 597AD. He was a missionary who became the first Archbishop of Canterbury.
In 1170 Archbishop Thomas Becket was murdered in the Cathedral and since then the Cathedral has attracted thousands of pilgrims, as told most famously in Geoffrey Chaucer's Canterbury Tales. The Cathedral has always had a tradition of welcoming visitors that dates back to the days of medieval pilgrimages. It remains one of the oldest and most famous Christian places in the country.
The Cathedral houses a Romanesque Crypt which dates back to the 11th century, a 12th century early Gothic Quire and a 14th Century Perpendicular Nave. Beautiful medieval stained glass windows illustrate miracles and stories associated with St Thomas.
