content: Perspective view of the inside of Westminster Abbey in London. High Gothic vaults and columns lead towards an arched opening flanked by two statues. The ornate windows along either side of the corridor are cut out, with patterned fabric mimicking stained glass, covered in a plasticky material, and thread visible through the openings. Groups of pedestrians wander through the space, and a crowd is gathered through the archway at the far end.
