The Rebuilding of St Mary Redcliffe - A Testament to Faith and Resilience
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures the remarkable painting by Terrick Williams, depicting the historic moment when William Canynges oversaw the rebuilding of St Mary Redcliffe in 1452. The oil on canvas artwork, created between 1921-22, showcases a pivotal event in English history. In this scene, we witness a bustling construction site filled with dedicated builders and stonemasons diligently working to restore the grandeur of this iconic church. Towering buttresses rise towards the heavens as they are meticulously crafted by skilled hands. Amidst the flurry of activity, figures clad in medieval attire can be seen conversing and supervising every detail. The presence of a figure holding a walking stick adds an intriguing element to this composition. Perhaps it symbolizes Canynges himself or signifies authority during this monumental project's execution. As we delve into this image, it becomes evident that more than just physical reconstruction is taking place; there is an underlying spiritual significance embedded within these walls. The Christian faith permeates every stroke of paint on canvas, reminding us that amidst adversity and destruction, resilience and devotion prevail. Through Williams' masterful brushwork and attention to architectural details typical of Gothic design prevalent during that era, he transports us back to medieval England—a time when religion was at the heart of society's fabric. This extraordinary piece now resides at Bristol Museum and Art Gallery in the UK thanks to Alfred Dowling
