St Nikolaikirche
Two representations of Thomas’s design, cross-section plan signed and dated by him, 13 March 1846, for the proposed replacement of Hamburg’s great medieval church, destroyed by fire. The competition to replace it was won by the young George Gilbert Scott, an important step in what was to be a distinguished career.
