Incredible palace chapel ceiling

Palace chapel
On Sunday 15th March, I went to Hampton Court, one of King Henry VIII’s palaces. I’d never gone there before so I was really excited.
One of the rooms I was especially impressed by was the palace’s chapel. Getting to see the incredible shapes in the ceiling reminded me of the honeycomb structure from a beehive. I enjoyed observing the richness of the blue paintwork and intricate woodwork.
Such a sight reminded me of an article from the National Geographic magazine, where bees in France in 2012 had been consuming remnants of colourful sweets, which had made the honey and their hives change into other colours, including blue, green and red.
It made me really think that life and art often imitate each other!
