EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite craftsmanship of six corbels adorning the roof of St James's, a religious sanctuary steeped in history. Created by Joseph Manning, a renowned artist from the 19th century, this pencil and watercolor masterpiece captures the intricate details of these architectural marvels. The corbels themselves are a testament to medieval artistry, with each one meticulously carved into unique forms. These sculptural pieces depict regal figures, most likely kings, exuding an air of authority and power. The British influence is evident in their majestic appearance and traditional attire. Manning's study brings attention to the importance of preserving our ecclesiastical heritage. Through his detailed drawing, he invites us to explore not only the beauty but also the historical significance behind these architectural elements. This artwork serves as a window into a bygone era when Gothic architecture reigned supreme. Housed at Bristol Museum and Art Gallery in the UK, this print is part of William Jerdone Braikenridge's bequest dating back to 1908. Its presence within this esteemed collection ensures that future generations can appreciate both Manning's talent and these remarkable corbels for years to come. Whether you're an avid admirer of religious art or simply fascinated by medieval architecture, this painting offers an intriguing glimpse into British history while celebrating human creativity at its finest.
