A rosy view of the Resurrection

The Mansfield Traquair Centre is a former Catholic Apostolic Church located on the edge of Edinburgh's historic New Town. The building was designed by the prominent nineteenth-century architect Sir Robert Rowand Anderson and completed in 1885.

The most outstanding feature of the church is the vast scheme of mural decoration painted by Scotland's leading Arts and Crafts artist Phoebe Anna Traquair in the 1890s. The Herculean labour by the artist, the brilliant colour and the soaring space have led to the building being dubbed 'Edinburgh's Sistine Chapel'.

This is part of the mural depicting the resurrection of the dead.
