EDITORS COMMENTS
This sepia-washed drawing, titled "Tablet in Blithfield Church - Mary Crawley" transports us back to the 19th century. Created by John Robert Fernyhough, a renowned British artist of his time, this delicate print measures 11.4x17.8 cm and is housed at The William Salt Library in Stafford, UK. The focal point of the artwork is a tablet made of pristine white marble, gracefully situated on the north side of the chancel within Blithfield Church. Inscribed in Latin are poignant words dedicated to Mary Crawley, who departed from this world on August 27th, 1658. Interestingly enough, she later married Lambard and Richardson. While time has shifted its placement to the vestry since this drawing was created, it still exudes an air of elegance and historical significance that captivates viewers even today. Fernyhough's attention to detail brings forth every intricate line and curve with remarkable precision. The subtle sepia wash adds depth and warmth to the composition while preserving its timeless quality. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing piece of artistry captured by Bridgeman Images for Fine Art Finder, we can't help but be transported into an era long gone yet forever preserved through skilled craftsmanship. It serves as a testament not only to Mary Crawley's memory but also to our enduring fascination with history and its tangible remnants found within sacred spaces like Blithfield Church.
