Oil on board, signed and dated 1904 in the lower left. The frame could be the original and measures 24" x 28". Leader was born in Worcester as Benjamin Leader Williams, the son, and first child of eleven children, of notable civil engineer Edward Leader Williams (1802–79) and Sarah Whiting (1801–88). His father was described as a "non conformist dissenter" and his mother was a Quaker – their marriage in an Anglican church resulted in them being disowned by the Society of friends.

Attributed to the British painter, Richard Jack (based on the penciled inscription on the verso side), the subject of this antique (pre-1916) oil painting is the St Mary’s Church in Beverley, England. Surrounded by a giltwood frame adorned with large acanthus medallions and foliate margent offshoots in the corners, the bright painting depicts the east side of the church. The cruciform church, originally from the early 12th century, was rebuilt and enlarged many times over the centuries, before a final massive restoration project was completed in the mid-19th century, as seen on the canvas. In the forefront of the painting is a large garden with a stone bench in front of a brick retaining wall. The verdant grounds are dotted with red flowers and two large trees flank the church beneath a cloud-filled blue sky. A section of the garden remains off the street that is now Hengate, although a paved courtyard and walkway have since been added. Richard Jack was born in 1866 in Sunderland, a port city in Northern England. At the age of 20, Jack won a national scholarship to the Royal College of Art. Over the next 30 years, Jack made a name for himself painting portraits of royalty, such as King George and Queen Mary of England and King Alphonso of Spain. During this period, Jack also painted interiors and landscapes, winning numerous awards and titles. In 1916, Jack accepted a commission in the Canadian Army...
