Uploader's Comments

This is part of the altar-cloth on the front of the altar in the church of St. John the Baptist, Bishop's Castle. I was struck by the richness of the textiles and the workmanship that had gone into its making. I'm not religious, but can appreciate commitment and the artistry involved. I didn't want to show the whole thing, nor its physical context; just preferred to concentrate on pattern and colour.
