点评:For those whom the very word Lalique prompts excitement, a visit to St Mathew Glass Church is an essential place to visit. Florence Boot, commissioned Rene Lalique to produce a unique memory to her late husband Jesse Boot, founder of the pharmacy chain. The fundamentals of the structure of the church are deliberately simple, but the altar and its surrounds are of dazzling quality exhibiting the skills of Lalique. Each window is glazed entirely with preciously crafted glass, and the entrance doors and panels feature angelic iconography and the Jersey lily. The decoration of the church is unique and its present value incalculable. Our own small collection of Lalique is dwarfed by this monument. A park nearby was bequeathed to the residents of Jersey and free parking adjacent to the church provides convenience to visit both church and garden.
翻译:对于那些一听到“Lalique”(拉俪)这个词就激动不已的人来说,圣马修玻璃教堂是必游之地。弗洛伦斯·布特委托雷内·拉俪为她已故的丈夫、连锁药店的创始人杰西·布特打造一件独一无二的纪念品。教堂的基本结构刻意简洁,但祭坛及其周围环境却光彩夺目,展现了拉俪的精湛技艺。每一扇窗户都镶满了珍贵的玻璃,入口大门和嵌板上则饰有天使肖像和泽西百合。教堂的装饰独一无二,如今的价值更是无可估量。我们自己收藏的少量拉俪作品与这座丰碑相比显得微不足道。附近的一个公园被遗赠给了泽西岛的居民,教堂旁边设有免费停车场,方便参观教堂和花园。
