Christ Church Barrel Vault Ceiling
From "A Tour of Christ Church:"
"Continuing with the mosaic symbols, you can look up and see there are three bands of nine symbols across the barrel vault. The same nine symbols are used in varying order in each of the bands and they include: the Alpha and Omega (the beginning and the end), the Hand of God, the Lamp of Knowledge, the Dove of the Holy Spirit and the Starry Crown of Spiritual Renewal. The vault is lined with acoustic tiles, whose fine aggregate coating serves to diffuse the sound and eliminate echoes when the church’s excellent choir sings on Sundays."
