About the artwork

This digital artwork shows an impressive side view of St John's Cathedral, masterfully rendered in a stylised, contemporary style. The artist has captured the gothic splendour of the structure against an atmospheric twilight sky that changes from purple to deep blue. This colourful sky forms a dreamy background that enhances the heavy, dark lines of the medieval building.

The details of the cathedral are carefully rendered with a sense of texture. From the slender turrets and aerial arches to the statues of saints adorning the roof - every element contributes to the majesty of this religious monument. The warm lighting inside some of the towers creates a subtle contrast and a sense of life and mystery.

Also striking is the scaffolding at the bottom of the building, a nod to the ongoing process of preserving and restoring cultural heritage. It reminds the viewer that this centuries-old cathedral is not only a symbol of the past, but also a living structure that faces the future with care.

The style of the work is modern and graphic, with clear contours and a limited colour scale. This creates a timeless image in which history and technology merge. With this digital interpretation, the artist shows respect not only for the craftsmanship of the past, but also for the possibilities of contemporary visual art. This work is an ode to Gothic, light and digital imagination.
