‘Virgin & Child’ re-installed in Guildford Cathedral

IAP Fine Art is delighted to announce that the Chris Gollon Estate has agreed a long term loan of ‘Virgin & Child’ by Chris Gollon to Guildford Cathedral.

Re-installation of the 8ft x 6ft painting ‘Virgin & Child’ by Chris Gollon in Guildford Cathedral took place just before Christmas Day 2025, and this large canvas will remain in the Cathedral for the foreseeable future. It was originally painted for Guildford in 2013, as part of the first stage of Chris Gollon’s national touring exhibition to English Cathedrals ‘Incarnation, Mary and Women from the Bible’.  After a 12-year absence, and being exhibited in the cathedrals of Norwich, Chichester, Durham and Hereford, the painting returns home to its original location, in Chris Gollon’s home county of Surrey.
