St. Jude's Church, Kennington
St. Jude's Church, Kennington, London
The mural is situated in a Victorian church built in 1899; it was painted by Alfred Egerton Cooper RBA (1883-1974) to commemorate the end of WWI. In 2013, the mural was vandalised with graffiti and after discussion with the church it was decided to carry out cleaning of the mural in conjunction with the removal of the graffiti. There were also cracks and losses to the plaster support which were filled and integrated with the original. The carved and gilded frieze above the mural was also cleaned and partially re-gilded.
