説明 | "The Church of Christ the Consoler is a Victorian Gothic Revival church built in the Early English style by William Burges.... Frederick Vyner was 'taken prisoner by Greek brigands in the neighborhood of Athens April 11th 1870 and murdered by them April 21st.' A significant ransom had been demanded, and in part collected, before his murder. Frederick's mother, Lady Mary Vyner determined that the unused funds would be used to construct a memorial church on her Yorkshire estate...." At the same time, Burges built the Church of St Mary at nearby Studley Royal, the estate of Lady Mary's sister-in-law, Lady Ripon. --http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Church_of_Christ_the_Consoler |
