"The Convent Shrine" by Frank Wyburd, in the Gallery of the British Institution, 1862. Creator: W Thomas. "The Convent Shrine" by Frank Wyburd, in the Gallery of the British Institution, 1862. Creator: W Thomas
"The Convent Shrine" by Frank Wyburd, in the Gallery of the British Institution, 1862. Engraving of a painting. This is a charming and picturesque little composition, imbued with that pious and romantic character which Mr, Wyburd loves to deal with. In an ancient convent of rude structure a nun is kneeling, telling her beads before the shrine of a saint; two other young females, whose faces denote a reverential and serious turn of thought, completing the group. "And the hymn of the nuns was heard the while, Sung low in the dim, mysterious aisle". The shrine is lighted by a lamp, unseen by the spectator, whose flickering rays fall upon the foreground with illusive effect. In the background is a landscape of lake and mountain enveloped in the cold grey hue of night or early morning. Everything in this picture is finished with admirable taste and feeling'. From "Illustrated London News", 1862

The Convent Shrine,
EDITORS COMMENTS
a captivating and evocative painting by Frank Wyburd, is showcased in the esteemed Gallery of the British Institution in 1862. This engraving, created by W Thomas, invites us into a world of piety and romance, where an ancient convent's rough-hewn walls enclose a sacred space. A nun, deeply engrossed in her devotions, kneels before the shrine of a saint, her beads slipping through her fingers. Two other young sisters, their faces reflecting a solemn and thoughtful demeanor, complete the tableau. The hymns of the convent sisters echo through the dimly lit, enigmatic aisle, as the flickering light from an unseen lamp casts an ethereal glow upon the foreground. The painting's background reveals a landscape of tranquil lake and majestic mountains, shrouded in the cold, grey hue of night or early morning. Wyburd's masterful brushstrokes bring this scene to life, imbuing it with a sense of reverence and wonder. The artist's ability to capture the essence of this pious and romantic moment is truly admirable, making "The Convent Shrine" a timeless masterpiece.
