EDITORS COMMENTS
In this handcoloured etching, Bishop John Perrott of Worcester is depicted in deep contemplation before a crucifix, surrounded by mythical beasts and allegorical figures on the south side of the Chancel in the Chapel of the Trinity, Stratford upon Avon. Drawn and etched by Thomas Fisher in 1808, this intriguing image offers a glimpse into the rich history and symbolism of this historic chapel. The bishop's pious demeanor is contrasted by the fantastical creatures above the Vicar's door. A dragon and a chimaera, a mythical beast with the body of a lion, the head of a goat, and the tail of a serpent, are depicted in fierce poses, their eyes fixed on the bishop below. These beasts were likely included as part of an allegorical representation of the triumph of the Christian faith over paganism and evil. The Chapel of the Trinity, located in Stratford-upon-Avon, was built in the late 13th century and is renowned for its unique and intricate wall paintings. Thomas Fisher, a skilled artist and etcher, meticulously captured the details of these paintings in his etchings, providing a valuable record of their beauty and significance for future generations. This etching not only offers a glimpse into the history and artistry of the Chapel of the Trinity, but also invites reflection on the enduring power of faith and the human capacity for the imaginative and the mythic. The bishop's fervent prayer before the crucifix serves as a reminder of the deep spiritual connection that has long been fostered within the walls of this historic chapel.
