Стэнли СПЕНСЕР
английский живописец, родился и жил в Кукхеме-на-Темзе, Беркшир, воплотив историю христианства в художественном оформлении Кукхема. В его детальных сказочных композициях мало внимания уделяется перспективе и используются обобщенные человеческие фигуры в очень оригинальной манере. Удостоен рыцарского звания в 1959. Наиболее яркие работы - «Христос, несущий крест» (Сhrist Саrrуing thе Сrоss, 1920), «Воскрешение» (RеsurrеСtiоn, 1923-27), хранящиеся в Лондонской галерее Тейт, а также фрески часовни Всех Душ в Бургклере, Беркшир.
