Ruins of the Duke of York’s Chapel, <strong>Wakefield</strong> Bridge<br />

Richard Ramsay Reinagle (1775 – 1862)<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>Hepworth</strong> <strong>Wakefield</strong>’s collection of Yorkshire images is the most important in the region.<br />

<strong>Wakefield</strong> itself attracted many <strong>art</strong>ists from the 18th Century onwards, who came to record<br />

the city’s distinctive skyline and the medieval Chantry Chapel, which survives to this day. <strong>The</strong><br />

Chapel has been more frequently painted and drawn than any other local subject.
