Ecce

 

 

I'm always interested in the use of candles, especially in sacred spaces, such as here in the St. Julian Chapel in Norwich. If I saw these correctly, they're shorter, say 6", candles mounted atop tapered holders. According to some sources, the six candles placed on the altar in the traditional Latin Mass represent the ancient Jewish symbol, the Menorah, but with the seventh candle, the central candle, being replaced by the sacrifice of Christ.

St.Julian's Font

 

 

The octagonal baptismal font in the St. Julian's Chapel in Norwich, according to Wikipedia, is "a replacement for the original one, which was lost when the church was bombed. The current font was moved from the now redundant All Saints' Church, Norwich in 1977. It has eight standing figures representing the Apostles, Saint Michael the Archangel, Saint George, and two other saints."
