City Beautiful Blog takes a close look at the animal imagery inside St. Bartholomew's Church on Park Avenue. The symbolism runs deep. From the pelican piercing its own breast to the unicorn as an allegory for the Incarnation, each creature carries a theological message rooted in medieval bestiaries. A thoughtful piece for anyone drawn to the intersection of art, architecture, and history.
