Accents on the Landscape

Ancient churches of West Sussex

This book, a signed, limited edition of 500 copies, and accompanying exhibition was commissioned by The Horsham Museum & Art Gallery as a way of celebrating the district’s churches in their local cultural and real landscape.

Gordon believes that our ancient churches form a legacy worth more than a cursory look and deserve to be protected and treasured for ever.

“Accents on The Landscape” is not a record of churches in West Sussex. It shows the emotional reaction of an artist to buildings, materials, tombs, fonts, stained glass windows, pews, brasss – even records of rectors going back almost to the time of William the Conqueror.

Designed and published by The Horsham Museum & Art Gallery and Horsham District Council to celebrate the Horsham District Year of Culture 2019.

74 pages, illustrated with 76 paintings.
