I will use this page and the pages listed above to show
some of the images I have uncovered relating to the Lobleys.
Below I will the latest finds. For other paintings, see the
Newsletters. The 'Buildings' page shows images of
parish churches and other buildings with a Lobley connection, including
'Lobley Hall'.
The 'Paintings' page shows many of the
paintings I have been able to find by Lobley artists of the 19th Century.
This wonderful painting: "Harvest Sunday" by James Lobley was brought to my
attention by new correspondent this year. He found it for sale
on e-Bay, where almost anything is bought and sold. I haven't
seen this painting before, but if you compare it to other paintings by James
Lobley, it is clearly another in the series of paintings that he made of
Stow Church, near Gainsborough in Lincolnshire. The font is
identical to one in a painting entitled 'The Dole, Stow Church'.
The bread on the top of the font would be for distribution to the poor of
the parish.
