Undivided back, golden age (pre-1907)

Pub. by The Williston Press, Boston

St. Paul's Cathedral

London, England

This Anglican cathedral has been a fixture in London's skyline for over 300 years, and is one of the most famed and recognizable sights of the city. Soaring over Ludgate Hill at 111 m (365 feet) the dome of the English Baroque cathedral is among the highest in the world.
Dome height (outer)   - 278ft (85m)
Dome height (inner) - 225ft (68m)
Dome diameter (outer) - 112ft (34m)
Dome diameter (inner) - 102ft (31m)
Towers heights - 221ft (67m)

Fun fact: Interred in 1723, the prolific British architect Sir Christopher Wren was laid to rest in his own masterpiece. He was the first of numerous key figures to receive this honor. The epitaph inscribed on his crypt reads: Lector, si monumentum requiris – which is Latin for ‘If you seek his monument, look around’.
