Explore the works of John Louis Petit (1801-68), an artist hailed as "the greatest discovery in British Art for a generation" (Andrew Graham-Dixon). Lichfield Cathedral is proud to host the first permanent exhibition of his extraordinary paintings.
For 120 years, Petit's extensive portfolio, was forgotten, until it was uncovered in the 1980's following the sale of a family member's home.
