St Matthew

The figure of St Matthew commissioned by the PPC of St Matthew’s Church, Northampton. Standing in the Nave to one side of the Rood Screen, it is flanked by Henry Moore’s ‘Madonna and Child’ to the left, and to the right, by Graham Sutherland’s ‘Crucifixion’. These are two of the 20th century’s most renowned religious works, making this church truly unique for religious art. The saint is shown as a vigorous man, around forty years of age, poised to undertake his role.
