wall painting


Part of a still extant medieval wall painting at the church of St Thomas, East Shefford, Berkshire. I was captivated by the rich colour, and the delicacy of this fragment, and in awe of the piety motivating it's origin. I would that I were able to piant with such strength of purpose, and such skill as the painter of this work.
