This evocative photograph, taken from Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a rare glimpse into the rich history of this magnificent English cathedral. Gloucester Cathedral, located in the heart of the historic city of Gloucester, is a stunning example of Gothic architecture.

The South Transept, as seen in this photograph, showcases the intricate stonework and the delicate arches that characterize this architectural masterpiece.

The South Transept is home to several notable features, including the impressive statue of King Edward II, which can be seen in the foreground of the image. The statue, which dates back to the late 14th or early 15th century, is a testament to the cathedral's historical significance.
