Chester Cathedral

Also known as Cathedral Church of Christ and the Blessed Virgin Mary, the current building dates back to the 13th century.

The building underwent a major restoration in 1868-76 by G.G. Scott, leading to its current high Victorian look.

A Salviati mosaic of The Last Supper from 1876 designed by J.R. Clayton decorates the high altar.

Salviati mosaics can also be found in the St. Erasmus Chapel of the cathedral.

An arcaded reredos lines the east wall with three Gothic cusped arches on each side of the altar framing a low relief and gablet of a Salviati mosaic of the Crucifixion.

Salviati is also believed to have manufactured the mosaic floors of the 1880 Baptistry.

St. Paul's Cathedral

St. Paul's Cathedral in central London, designed by Sir Christopher Wren and built between 1675-1710,  contains several Salviati mosaics under its grand dome.

In 1862, the first two of eight decorated spandrels were commissioned.

Isaiah, designed by Alfred Stevens, was installed in 1864.

Matthew, based on a design by G.F. Watts, was installed in 1866.

The four Evangelists (from left to right): Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.

The designs for Jeremiah and John were also began by Watts, while those for Ezekiel and Daniel were by either Watts or Stevens. However, neither man was able to bring the work to completion, so they were finished by W.E.F. Britten, along with his own designs for Mark and Luke.  They were manufactured in Venice in 1893.

The four Prophets: Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel and Daniel.

St. Curig's Church

Opened in 1883, this church in Wales by architect G.M. Roberts has now been converted to a Bed and Breakfast, but its original Salviati mosaics have been preserved.

The composition depicting Christ surrounded by angels that is located in the former apse can still be seen in the space now used as a dining room and guest area.

The mosaic is thought to have been commissioned by William Edward Sackville-West, the estate manager to Lord Penrhyn, in memory of the former's wife and was based on cartoons by Clayton and Bell.
