EDITORS COMMENTS
This watercolor painting, created around 1790 by artist Stebbing Shaw, beautifully captures the essence of Stafford's St. Marys Church. The artwork, measuring 27.9x22.9 cm, can be found at The William Salt Library in Stafford, UK. The painting showcases a south-west view of the church, highlighting its remarkable architectural features. The clerestory and the south aisle and transept are prominently displayed alongside the central square-and-octagonal tower. In addition to these main elements, there is also a glimpse of the south aisle of the chancel and a building constructed over the roadway into the main street. Notably, this scene includes medieval houses to the west that were once used for both Grammar School and Council House purposes but had previously served as St. Bethelins Chapel in ancient times. Sadly, these historic structures were demolished during the summer of 1802 according to The Gentlemans Magazine. One striking aspect depicted in this artwork is the solid Georgian-style structure of St. Marys' south doorway—a testament to classical design principles prevalent during that era. Overall, this exquisite watercolor painting offers viewers an enchanting glimpse into both Stafford's rich history and architectural heritage while showcasing Stebbing Shaw's artistic talent for capturing intricate details with delicate brushstrokes.
