Specialist note
Rather than relying on his imagination, Piper almost invariably based his religious vignettes upon known examples of Romanesque or Medieval church sculpture which he had seen and sketched during trips to France during the 1960s, the decade from which the current work is thought to date.
We are very grateful to Rev. Dr Stephen Laird FSA for preparing this catalogue entry.
