"The Convent Shrine" by Frank Wyburd, in the Gallery of the British Institution, 1862. Engraving of a painting. This is a charming and picturesque little composition, imbued with that pious and romantic character which Mr, Wyburd loves to deal with. In an ancient convent of rude structure a nun is kneeling, telling her beads before the shrine of a saint; two other young females, whose faces denote a reverential and serious turn of thought, completing the group. "And the hymn of the nuns was heard the while, Sung low in the dim, mysterious aisle". The shrine is lighted by a lamp, unseen by the spectator, whose flickering rays fall upon the foreground with illusive effect. In the background is a landscape of lake and mountain enveloped in the cold grey hue of night or early morning. Everything in this picture is finished with admirable taste and feeling'. From "Illustrated London News", 1862
