I love this shot. Everything is just a little off-kilter, yet within an austere, formal setting. The fire says modernity, relative to the 11th century exposed painting, though it too is not ‘with it’. The little bunch of snowdrops is the contemporary, an anonymous gift for all those who pass by, leading the eye to the brightness, symbolising hope, outside. In abstract terms it has balance. And perspective beyond the image, -an open doorway casting light from lower left to a narrow but intense unknown through the whited out window, central to the viewer.
