William Nicholson (1872 - 1949)
Mells Window
Photographic collage
57 x 33 cm
Titled below and signed lower right in ink.
Nicholson's original photographic collage of his magnificent stained glass window at St Andrew's Church in Mells. It depicts St Francis of Assisi preaching to the fish and the birds, with a Madonna and Child in the central panel.
The window was commissioned by Lady Frances Horner as a memorial to her husband Sir John Horner, a barrister whose family seat was Mells Manor, a grand country house and park near Frome in Somerset. Lady Horner was a great patron of the arts and commissioned by artists including Eric Gill, Edwin Lutyens, and Edward Burne-Jones, as well as Nicholson. Nicholson was a regular visitor to Mells from the early 1920s, and designed the window in 1930. Burne-Jones had already designed a memorial in the church (to a different member of the family) in 1886.
Sir William Nicholson was a British painter and printmaker. He is also known as an illustrator, author of children’s books, stained glass designer, and theatre set designer.

William Nicholson
William Nicholson was a British painter of still-life, landscape and portraits. He was probably best known through his graphic works, as a book designer and illustrator. Nicholson was greatly encouraged in his landscapes by Whistler from about 1900. In 1902–03, he produced a series of watercolor, chalk and pen drawings of Oxford, which were published in 1905 by the Stafford Gallery as two portfolios of lithographs with descriptions by Arthur Waugh – father of Evelyn Waugh. With Stafford Gallery blindstamps and Nicholson’s signature, these dramatic works of Oxford show Nicholson’s interest in the effects of light and shade on the city’s architecture.
