The reflections in the late afternoon and early evening summer sunshine provide a magical glow to the wonderful John Rylands Library on Deansgate. The Grade I listed building library always looks much older than its 1890 date to me, but that's neo-gothic architecture for you!
It was founded by Enriqueta Augustina Rylands in memory of her husband, John Rylands and is one of Manchester's gems. I cannot believe I haven't posted about it before in my 26 months of blogging here at Mancunian Wave. I did name it as one of my favourite Manchester buildings in an interview at Manhattanchester a few days ago.
The magical glow is an amazing sight.
