| book description |

Which artists in British 20th century art painted religious images? Broadly speaking there seem to have been two categories: The first concerns artists who created religious images when the religious content was in response to a set subject, for example The Deluge in the 1920 Rome Scholarship in Decorative Painting, or who responded to a specific commission, for example Thomas Monningtonâ€˜s works for The Ormond Chapel, Bradford, Kippen Church and Stations of the Cross for Brede Church in Hastings. The second category concerns a small minority off artists who were committed believers such as Frank Brangwyn, Eric Gill and Stanley Spencer. Â No account of 20th Century British art can overlook the numerous works of the period that were essentially â€œreligiousâ€ in their content. Art, Faith& Modernity examines this question in Paul Lissâ€˜ and Alan Powersâ€™ essays and demonstrates the wide range of expression in more than 200 colour reproductions.
