Description

Though more known for his contributions to architecture, Kellogg was an equally adept printmaker and muralist. Born in Boston, Kellogg had an affinity for architectural images. Though he was a longtime resident of California at the time of this print’s commission by the California Society of Printmakers, he chose the St. Botolph’s Church of England to be his subject.

St. Botolph’s is a parish church in Boston, Lincolnshire, England nicknamed “The Boston Stump” upon construction in the 16th century, due to the tower’s prominence in a relatively flat landscape. It can be seen from Norfolk on a clear day and was used for a long time as a landmark for sailors. This print is included in the National Gallery of Art's permanent collection.
