What a stunning building Denver is.
One aspect of St. Colmans that really lets it down I think is the ambo/altar table – it’s quite ugly don’t you think?
It barely fits into context at all; solid, heavy, cumbersome, basic, and ever so faintly naff in that garish white marble in contrast to the muted tones of its surroundings and the tokenistic ‘gothic pointy bits.’
Is it later that the rest of the sanctuary? Looks like a 1920s piece…
