„St Mary Abby, York museum.“

aus der Galerie von Robert Gipson
Über dieses Bild:

Its story ties together two of the most important events in English history. It was begun by William the Conqueror to reinforce his hold on the north after 1066 and ended by Henry the Eighth as a consequence of his Reformation of the church.
In its day it was the wealthiest abbey in the north and one of the richest in the country.
The abbeys economic power and privileges brought benefits to the city but were also a source of conflict.
