St Mary the Virgin's, Llanfair Kilgeddin, Monmouthshire. These sgraffito are an astonishing expression of the Arts & Crafts movement in the Usk valley!
Here's a lovingly detailed sgraffito panel, "O Ye Children of Men Bless Ye the Lord," in St Mary the Virgin, Llanfair Kilgeddin, by George Heywood Sumner (1853-1940): all the ages of man, and death too, are movingly represented (photo, Michael Statham) https://t.co/ruaQh3pXTa

@pottedpelissier @Knowledgepoint @VanishedLondon @BMusicSociety @VictorianWeb @musichallsoc great picture ... and with All Souls and what is now the Algerian Embassy in the background makes it absolutely clear where it used to stand. Thank you for sharing.

The harvest is complete, with the last sheaf claimed as a prize. It's a time for happy endings, as captured in this idyllic painting by George Hemming Mason. Like the glorious weather, our folkloric traditions are there for all to enjoy. #FolkloreSunday

'Nunsploitation' is not just a new phenomenon. Would it have affected Marga's choice to enter a convent 100 years ago? @AnastasiaScribe @DrMatthewSweet @VictorianWeb @janeyellene @artinsociety @bust_magazine @_Womeninthearts
