The Quire Screen dates to the 15th century. It is one of the most striking features inside the York Minster. The entrance to the Quire appears to be guarded by the 15 Kings of England from William I to Henry VI. These eight kings stand to the right of the archway. ISO 1600 1/10 @ f/16

This one is pretty darn good, too! I could spend literally hours gazing at these and reading about the life of each of them!
