Architects, Priests and Masons in the Middle Ages

The Leaves of Southwell Project presents:
a talk by Cathedral Archaeologist, Professor Philip Dixon
Most studies of medieval churches and cathedrals concentrate on the dates and sources of inspiration for the buildings. In this talk, Philip looks at the links between patrons and builders, to try to identify the aims of the people who paid for the work and the interpretation of these aims by the workers who tried to turn the objective into stonework, looking at both religious and secular buildings.
This talk has no charge but any donations to the project are most welcome and can be made at wwww.southwellm...
Donations from the talk series will directly support the Leaves of Southwell Project
This talk was originally held on the 16th November 2021, 2pm Microsoft Teams
