1.The masterpiece of Sir Christopher Wren, a marriage of engineering and religionlike no other, which epitomises the age in which it was built. A time that many have called2.the Age of Enlightenment.3.If one structure captures the spirit of London, this is it.4.Beautifully crafted and designed, it's simply stunning in its grandeur.5.The bright white stone of St Paul's radiates across the London skyline.But gettingit to the capital was a logistical challenge for Wren and his masons.6.Getting to see the sheer size of the interior from here brings home its sheeraudacity. He built it because this second dome, the brick witch's hat, sails at sucha steep pitch that, if you looked at it from the cathedral floor, it would be toomuch in perspective. It would be receding too fast.7.It's being able to see the vaults at the same time and the dome. You seem to bein close proximity to everything.8.He was really the person who brought in the Georgian age and England would neverlook the same again.9.You see Victorian mosaic work in the spandrels, between the arches. Quitepainterly in style. And the bits of gold work, angled so that they catch the light.10.But it does give you that sense of other-worldliness. If you're building a placethat cultivates a sense of heaven and the world beyond, just that little glimpse does that. I wonder if that's accident or design.1, iconic [ai'kɔnik]adj.
