# Interior view [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [ARCHITECT, English]() - Date: 1251-1300 - Technique: Photo ## Commentary The choir of Wells Cathedral was renovated from 1333 by the master mason William Joy. The three stories are linked by a pier profile whose wave pattern runs all around the pier. The central area consists of a delicate latticework pattern of vertical bars and ogee-arched gabled arcading containing statues. In the vault the boundaries of the bays almost completely disappear and a mesh of liernes spreads over the whole surface, creating lozenges, hexagons, and stars. Walls, windows, and vaults are all covered by a filigree web of fine lines. The photo shows the choir looking east. The Lady Chapel, completed in 1326, can be seen to the east through the arcades.
