Gods' Collections

Yesterday I led a tour of artworks at St Martin-in-the-Fields as part of a seminar in the Gods' Collections programme.

Places of worship of all traditions have always accumulated collections. Today some have generated great art museums, while others just keep a few old things in a sacristy cupboard. The Gods' Collections project looks at why and how these collections have developed, how they have been looked after, and how understanding of them has changed over the millennia.

for my earlier articles on the art of St Martin-in-the-Fields.
