Depitcting the striking façade of the Romanesque church at Jazennes in the Charente-Maritime region of southwest France. Architectural subjects, especially ecclesiastical designs from France, Italy and England, commonly featured in Piper’s prints and paintings.

The church is lit dramatically by the sunset on the right side of the composition, contrasting with the main façade creating an imposing character. Piper used his artistic vision ‘... to express a personal love of country and architecture and the humanity that inhabits them’.
