Kilpeck_Green_Man.jpg


Summary

Description

A scan from a print of a 35mm photograph which I took at the Romanesque church of Saint Mary and Saint David in Kilpeck, Herefordshire, England in the mid 1970s. It shows a carving, on a capital of the south doorway, of a "Green Man", made during the late Norman period (mid 12th century AD) by an unknown sculptor of the "Herefordshire School".

This scan is in the Public Domain (however, I retain ownership and copyright of the original print (and negative) and any higher-resolution scans derived from them). If you use the photo outside Wikipedia, a photographer's credit (Simon Garbutt) would be appreciated.
