This stereoscopic photograph by Francis Bedford, taken between 1850 and 1880, captures the intricate detail of the reredos in St Saviour’s Chapel, Exeter Cathedral. The reredos, a decorative screen behind an altar, is adorned with carved figures and scenes. Bedford, a prominent photographer of the Victorian era, used the new technology of stereoscopic photography to capture the three-dimensional depth of the chapel, giving viewers a sense of being present in the space. This photograph is a valuable record of architectural and sculptural details of Exeter Cathedral.
