Oil Painting

Stunning oil painting, by an unknown artist from the English School, depicting the ruins of Glastonbury Abbey, including the Abbot’s lodge. Dating from around 1720, the painting also shows workmen removing stones from the abbey, which would potentially then have been used as building materials elsewhere in the area.
