Bishop Wulstan, in Worcester Cathedral

About this work

This drawing shows a tall, solemn figure in robes, standing against a plain background. The person wears a crown and holds a small object in one hand while raising the other as if blessing. Swirling decorative patterns frame the head, and the drapery folds look heavy and detailed. The artist signed it as "Denman," and the note below names the figure as Bishop Wulstan from Worcester Cathedral. The sketch feels formal, almost like a carved statue brought to life.
