Ink and watercolour on paper. Mounted and framed.

Watercolour perspective showing proposed sovereign's throne and canopy in the western apse of the chapel. Probably a presentation perspective created to support the appeal for funding the wood carving.

Found at the Foreign and Commonweath Office Main Building, Whitehall in January 1991, brought to the Government Art Collection and conserved by Keith Holmes in February/March 1991. Offered to St Paul's Cathedral as a gift in 2011.
