The Peddler of Swaffham, c. 1462: A Timeless Tale Carved in Wood In this photo print, we are transported back to the 15th century, where an exquisite legend comes to life through a remarkable piece of medieval sculpture. The English School's masterful carving depicts 'The Peddler of Swaffham', a tale that has captured the hearts and imaginations of generations. Set within the historic Swaffham Parish Church in Norfolk, this intricately carved wooden bench end showcases a male peddler with his pack on his back, embodying the essence of a colporteur from centuries past. With its gothic details and meticulous craftsmanship, it stands as a testament to the skill and artistry of its creators. As we admire this timeless artwork, we can't help but wonder about the story behind it. Legend has it that John Chapman was once an ordinary peddler who dreamt he would find great wealth beneath one particular stone in his garden. Inspired by this vision, he dug up his entire garden until finally discovering a pot filled with gold coins. This extraordinary sculpture serves as both a tribute to John Chapman's unwavering faith and as a symbol of hope for all who encounter it. It reminds us that sometimes our greatest treasures lie hidden within our own lives if only we have the courage to seek them out. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' preservation efforts, we can now appreciate every intricate detail and emotion captured in this photograph
