1. A rediscovered prototype by Quinten Metsys: 'Christ blessing with the Virgin in adoration'.

Author

Stainer-Hutchins, Kiffy, Watney, Simon, and Platt, Hugo

Abstract

The article examines the paintings Christ blessing and The Virgin in adoration by Quinten Metsys in Bradford-on-Avon, England. The painting, which was originally the left half of a single rectangular panel of which the missing right-hand side was found to be figure of the Virgin in adoration, seemed to have been cut down along the right edge and cropped Christ's left shoulder. A palpable intimacy and freshness that is not so apparent in other variants are depicted by the painting. The background of both paintings is covered with gold and is speckled with a pattern of reddish-brown spots and shading.

2. John Bushnell in Chichester: the monument to Bishop Carleton.

Author

Watney, Simon

Abstract

The article focuses on the three stately marble wall monuments in Chichester Cathedral in Sussex, England designed by John Bushnell for Bishop Guy Carleton. It reveals that Bushnell uses huge and elaborated details, as well as unbroken length of straight edge in the gadroon in working with his hanging monuments. It details the idiosyncratic composition of the Bishop Carleton's monuments, and compares it with the standing putti at the Little Gaddesden, and at the putto at Ashburn in East Sussex. Moreover, the issue on the distinct sculptural personality, his brief biography, and the religious background of Bishop Carleton are also presented.
