Abstract

The defaced and probably unfinished Easter sepulchre at St Mary’s Church, Tarrant Hinton, in Dorset is exceptional in its scale and sophisticated renaissance decoration, in comparison to other sixteenth-century structures associated with contemporary Easter liturgy. Previous notice of it has been impeded by failure to assess properly the upper part of the monument, which new photography now renders accessible. This demonstrates a remarkable resemblance between its (defaced) angels and the bronze angels by Benedetto da Rovezzano being prepared at Westminster in the late 1520s for the tomb of Cardinal Wolsey; while the lower part of the structure displays influence from contemporary French decoration. This structure is assessed in the contexts of other monuments of the early sixteenth century intended to support a temporary Easter sepulchre and of what can be reconstructed of the career of the minor but wealthy cleric who was responsible for its erection. Thomas Wever MA (d. 1536) made additions to two of his rectories besides building substantial extensions on the north side of Tarrant Hinton church. It is suggested that both his building there and the Easter sepulchre itself are unfinished and were abandoned at his death as a result of his continued indebtedness. The sepulchre itself suggests a direction that English church decoration never took.

最后的复活节坟墓:多塞特郡塔兰特·辛顿的托马斯·韦弗和圣玛丽教堂
多塞特郡塔兰特·辛顿圣玛丽教堂的复活节坟墓被损毁,可能尚未完工,与其他16世纪与当代复活节礼拜仪式相关的建筑相比,它的规模和复杂的文艺复兴装饰非同寻常。由于未能正确评估纪念碑的上部,之前的通知受到了阻碍,新的摄影作品现在可以进入纪念碑的上部。这表明其(污损的)天使与15世纪20年代末在威斯敏斯特为红衣主教沃尔西墓准备的贝内德托·达罗夫扎诺的青铜天使之间有着惊人的相似之处;而结构的下部则受到了当代法国装饰的影响。这座建筑是在16世纪初其他纪念碑的背景下评估的,这些纪念碑旨在支撑一座临时的复活节坟墓,以及负责建造坟墓的未成年但富有的神职人员的职业生涯。托马斯·韦弗(Thomas Wever MA,1536年)除了在塔兰特·辛顿教堂北侧修建大量扩建部分外,还对他的两个教区进行了扩建。有人认为,他在那里的建筑和复活节坟墓本身都未完工,由于持续负债,在他去世时被遗弃。坟墓本身表明了英国教堂装饰从未走过的道路。
