- Description:
- Three women kneel in prayer in grotto at Old St. Mary's Catholic Church in Detroit, Michigan. "While not the largest in ground dimensions, is one of the most massive and striking in the area, the plan was executed by parishioner Peter Dederichs, his design combined facets of Pisan Romanesque and Venetian Renaissance to create a unique and beautiful structure ... the structure's interior dimensions are considerably emphasized by its cool shades of blue, the length of the church is 176 feet, the width of the nave 80 feet and the transept 116 feet, the ceiling of the nave at the center of the arch towers 90 feet from the floor, as one enters the church, one is immediately impressed by its magnificent proportions, it is Roman in style and cruciform in plan - the cross being seen to best advantage in the richly frescoed ceiling," from Old St. Mary's website.
