Magdeburg, Germany

A floral arrangement sits in the foreground, slightly off-centre, within the vast interior of the grand Magdeburg Cathedral. The arrangement is in a low, pale pink, round container and features delicate light pink and white carnations (Dianthus caryophyllus) with fringed petals, interspersed with sprigs of baby's breath (Gypsophila) and green foliage. Some of the carnations are fully open, while others are still in bud.
The background is softly blurred but reveals the impressive architecture of the building. Tall, slender columns rise towards arched ceilings with intricate ribbed vaulting. Large stained-glass windows are visible in the distance, allowing coloured light to filter into the space. The overall colour palette is muted, with the pale flowers contrasting gently against the darker stone and shadows of the interior. The setting suggests a place of worship or historical significance, with the floral arrangement adding a touch of natural beauty to the architectural grandeur.
