Summary
editDescriptionSatterlee Tomb in Washington Cathedral.jpg |
English: View of Bishop Satterlee's Memorial in Washington Cathedral sculpted by Nathaniel Hitch. Hitch completed two major works for the architect Caröe in Washington Cathedral. The first was the Memorial to Bishop Henry Yates Satterlee which was unveiled in 1920 and the second the Memorial to Bishop Alfred Harding, this consecrated in 1929. For the Satterlee work Hitch executed Caröe’s design for the Sarcophagus. Satterlee’s life-sized figure lies recumbent and attired in his Episcopal robes. The angels symbolize the Lambeth Quadrilateral of which Satterlee was one of the leading exponents. Around the figure and at the top of the base are inscribed important dates in his life, and the words “Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God of Hosts; Heaven and Earth are full of Thy Glory, Glory be to Thee, O Lord Most High” words which Satterlee spoke just before his death. On the base is carved an inscription to his wife Jane Lawrence Satterlee, who lies buried beside him. Bishop Harding’s life-sized figure is also attired in his Episcopal robes, and lies recumbent. He is attended by angels and his bulldog keeps watchful wake for his master. At the base are inscribed important dates of his life, and inscriptions to his wife Justine Prindle Harding and his son Douglas Harding. |
