St John the Baptist
This beautiful old church sits at the squeeze, where the North Road is pinched as it goes into High Barnet
St John the Baptist
High Barnet, London
I sketched this church on a cold day in December, sitting in front of the charming Barnet Museum. My notes, written in the corner on the day, say:
"Here since 1272, probably built in 1420 then fiddled about with by the Victorians in 1872 (Butterfield). The church of St John the Baptist with the Barnet Museum behind me, on a cold December's day. 8 - 12 - 2013"
High Barnet, North London
Available Prints
Original size 550 x 250 mm - £65
Prints are made with archival inks on one of two papers - either 350g Hahnemuhle German Etching paper, or 290g. Hahnemuhle Hemp, a beautifully heavy paper with rich colours. Made with 60% hemp fiber, this is an eco-friendly paper. Hemp is a highly sustainable resource, historically used for papermaking. Hahnemuhle use spring water for milling, and the production of hemp paper does not require bleaching or chloride, making the process less impactful. Postage and packing will be calculated on checkout.

Framing and mounts
An A4 print is best framed in an A3 frame - these images work best with a decent amount of white space surrounding them.
