| Description |
English: Bronze Doors to the Grand Temple (exterior), Freemasons' Hall, London. 1933. Each door was cast in one piece 12ft. by 4 ft. weighing 1.25 tons. Elements of the design:- Top two panels: left: the Ark brought to the Temple; right: likewise the seven-branched candlesticks. Left downwards: the vessels of gold and silver come from beyond the desert; the stone conveyed by oxen to Jerusalem; the stones hewn in the quarry and worked and numbered by the Giblites. Right downwards: the weaving sheds beyond the great rivers; the timber felled in the forest of Lebanon and conveyed by float from Tyre to Joppa; the metals fused and cast in the plains of Zeradath. Conceived and designed by Walter Gilbert (a Freemason), modelled by Donald Gilbert and bronze casting by H. H. Martyn of Cheltenham. https://www.scribd.com/doc/17256374/Walter-Gilbert-Main-Inventory
