St Martin le Grand on Coney Street is an 11th century church so this very modern depiction of the last supper inside the church was rather a surprise. Dating from 1967 it is by Frank Roper. Designed as a reredos for the altar it is made from gold-painted aluminium. What do you think of it? It is a little too 'home made' for my tastes and was originally hidden away at the back of the church but is now on display under a modern stained glass window. The church suffered badly from bomb damage during WW2 hence the modern interior.

not sure I like it, though maybe if the spaces had been filled in to look more like stained glass it would look more suitable?
ReplyDeleteI like it and perfect for L day. Carver, ABC Wed. Team
ReplyDeleteThe last supper has always brought me joy but this one kind of feels eery. I do love the stained glass.

I don't like it that much. It's just okay for me. But, I love the stained glass! :)
