medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture I wonder if there is any connection between these wall paintings, and those found at St Teilo, formerly at Landeilo Tal y bont, Glamorgan, and now at St Fagans http://www.museumwales.ac.uk/en/stfagans/buildings/stteilos/ Anne _____ From: medieval-religion - Scholarly discussions of medieval religious culture [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Stephen Morris Sent: 06 December 2013 16:22 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: [M-R] newly discovered medieval wall paintings in Wales medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture Thank you for the links! Nice to meet you, "face-to-face" as well, Maddy!

The St George is most of the south wall, the Sins go round the west end of the south wall and onto the west wall. There is clearly undamaged paint under the limewash on the west wall of the aisle north of the window and round to the north wall of the aisle - current best guess is the Acts of Mercy. There are traces of paint elsewhere including over the chancel arch, but Jane Rutherfoord says the smooth plaster elsewhere suggests it has been renewed in the post-medieval period and won't have any paint. There are also post-medieval texts (you can see part of one which has been left over the castle and princess in the St George painting) which may make it difficult to justify exploring further.

The video suggests one end of one aisle has its paint scheme intact, a rare opportunity to get some sense of the original appearance of the whole church. Wonderful.
