Created in 1873 by the talented artist Harry Burrow, this masterpiece can be found in St Mary's Church, Cleobury Mortimer, Shropshire, UK. The image captures the essence of the Arts and Crafts movement with its intricate details and exquisite beauty. The female figure depicted represents vanity, personified through her elegant posture and holding a hand mirror.
