About the Item

Title: Trio of Watercolors of Frenchay Church Quaker Meeting House and Unitarian Chapel by Jack Grunwell, 20th century British artist Medium: Watercolor on thin card, unframed Measurements: 4.25 inches (height) x 2 inches (width) Condition: Very good and highly presentable Provenance: From a large private collection of this artists work in Bristol, England. Description: This rare and elegant vertical trio by Jack Grunwell brings together three distinct places of worship in one beautifully unified watercolour: Frenchay Church, the Quaker Meeting House, and the Unitarian Chapel. At the top, Frenchay Church stands gracefully among trees, its tall spire and Georgian surroundings evoking the quiet charm of this South Gloucestershire village. The church is a key local landmark, originally built in the early 19th century. In the centre, Grunwell captures the Quaker Meeting House, a two-storey structure painted with wonderful period detail. Figures in traditional attire and a man on horseback add to the sense of quiet dignity and history associated with the Quaker movement. At the bottom, the Unitarian Chapel is nestled in greenery, its small tower and understated design reflecting the simplicity often embraced by Unitarian architecture. The surrounding foliage and stone wall further enhance the secluded, reflective feel of the piece. Together, these three vignettes form a sensitive and harmonious tribute to nonconformist religious heritage in Britain. This unique composition would appeal to collectors of ecclesiastical art, regional history, or those drawn to Britain’s diverse religious architecture.
