Extract

The fourteenth-century wall-painting in the church of St Hubert, Idsworth, Hampshire, have attracted repeated attention since their initial discovery in 1864. This is, of course, partly a reflection of their artistic quality—both E. W. Tristram (1955, 89) and David Lloyd (Pevsner and Lloyd 1967, 307) referred to their liveliness and vigour and the exceptional quality of their design—but clearly also reflects the difficulties art historians have found in providing a convincing interpretation of their iconographic programme.
