The reclining Bishop by rumpelstiltskin

The reclining Bishop

I'm not sure why the Bishop of Ely, Peter Gunning (1614-1684), is depicted in such a casual pose in Ely Cathedral, but it's a striking departure from the usual sculptures of important figures!
A very relaxed Bishop. Lovely windows.

Truly unique representation! After all, we are human beings! Even a bishop! I like the statue and the photo too!
