The print shows the back view of the monument fixed to the wall in East Horsley Church, Surrey. It provides a glimpse into history with its intricate details and symbolism. The bishop is depicted wearing his episcopal vestments, including a robe and mitre. He is shown kneeling in prayer, conveying his religious devotion. The image showcases the ecclesiastical dress worn during that era, giving us insight into the fashion and style of clergy members at that time. The mausoleum-like setting adds to the solemnity and reverence associated with death and burial practices in medieval England. This portrait serves as a testament to John Bowthe's significance within Christianity during this period.
