Works

Notable works

Church of the Holy Cross, Woodchurch

Durst executed the rood screen and an ivory processional Cross for the Church of the Holy Cross. The rood screen was carved in 1933. The west side of the rood beam, facing the nave, features carvings of the Seven Sacraments represented as the fruit of the vine, which grows downwards from the foot of the cross above. From right to left the Sacraments are Baptism, Confirmation, Absolution, Holy Communion, Holy Orders, Holy Matrimony and Holy Unction. The figures on the supporting columns are - St. Augustine of Canterbury, Elijah, St. Peter, St. Luke, Moses, and St Columba. On the east side of the screen the Christ of the Apocalypse features at the top and on the beam beneath a priest is shown at the altar elevating the Host as the central act of the Church's worship. These two themes were proposed by the Reverend Bryan Robin who was the rector of the church at the time. Durst's carving include those on the uprights supporting the Rood Screen. The church is located in Woodchurch Cheshire, an area of Birkenhead on the Wirral Peninsula, England. [2] [3]

Holy Trinity Church, Northwood

Northwood Instrument

Durst was responsible for carvings on the clergy and choir stalls for Holy Trinity Church in Northwood Middlesex. These were carved in 1957 from English oak and dedicated by The Bishop of London. The carvings express prayer, praise and harmony. The Vicar's stall on the right shows two angels kneeling in prayer at the step of an altar. Between them is a symbol of the Holy Trinity with the Cross set above the world, which is superimposed on three intersecting circles. The other clergy stall on the left symbolising praise shows two angels, each holding in one hand a crown and in the other a ribbon proclaiming: "Holy, Holy, Holy". The bench ends of the choir stalls express harmony. Firstly, those on the west end of the stalls represent from the left: trumpet, cymbal and pipe; and from the right, organ, lute and harp. On the east end of the benches on the left are lyre, lute and tabret; and on the right sackbut, cornet and psaltery. [4] [5] The photograph to the left shows one of Durst's carvings, this of a psalter.

Llandaff Cathedral

Durst made a carved font for Llandaff Cathedral in Llandaff Wales from Derbyshire stone. It includes scenes from the Bible including Eve giving her account of the temptation before God, Isaiah, St John and the Virgin and Child and the Life of St Teilo. On the upper part of the font the inscription reads: "QUI CREDERIT ET BAPTIZERATUS EVERIT SALVUS ERIT" (He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved). Part of the carving features the "Tree of Knowledge" with an angel before it holding a flaming sword. Eve kneels beneath the tree holding a tangled scroll. The Serpent is coiled around the tree and strikes at her heel. "SERPENS DECEPIT ME" (the serpent beguileth me). Isaiah prophesies the coming of Christ "ECCE VIRGO CONCIP" (Behold a Virgin shall conceive). The Tree of Life is shown against which stands the Angel of the Annunciation. Mary kneels before the cradle-altar upon which lies the infant Christ. Durst carved Saint John's vision. "ET FOLIO LIGNI AD SALVATEM CENTIUM" (The leaves of the Tree shall be for the healing of the Nations). On the pedestal is the Welsh inscription "A DUW NID DA IMDURAW" (It is not good to strive against God) followed by references to St Teilo's life. [6]

Manchester Cathedral

Durst executed several works for Manchester Cathedral The first can be seen in an oak panel above the south porch of the Good Shepherd and another work on the exterior tower. [7] [nb 1] He carved angels of the roof of the Cathedral holding between them a coat of arms of Queen Elizabeth and The Queen Mother. [9] [10]

Royal Academy of Dramatic Art

Durst sculpted the masks of Comedy and of Tragedy above the entrance to the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, Bloomsbury, London [11] [12]

St Alphege Church, Solihull

St Christopher's Church

Winchester Cathedral

Durst carvings in Winchester Cathedral

Durst carried out some carving on the memorial in Winchester Cathedral in Hampshire to Canon Bertram Kier Cunningham, this memorial completed in 1944. The carving was shown at the Royal Academy in 1942 before going to Winchester. It can be found in the east aisle in front of the tablet to Mary Pescod. [1] [15] The carving is a representation of "The Annunciation" and features the Angel Gabriel appearing before the Virgin Mary and greeting her with the words "Greetings, favoured one, the Lord is with you" - "Ave,gratia plena, Dominus tecum" or more simply "Ave Maria". Gabriel tells Mary that she would bear a son to be called Jesus. As is often the case Mary is shown reading a book on which would be written "Ecce virgo concipiet et pariet filium" ("Behold, the Virgin will conceive and will give birth to a son" - Isaiah 7:14). At the back of the work Durst carved several reliefs including a representation of the turning water into wine. As the whole piece is close to a wall Durst's reliefs are not seen to their best advantage and are difficult to photograph. Just behind Mary, Durst has carved a dove in which form the Holy Spirit was said to have descended on Mary. Mary replied to Gabriel with the words "Behold the handmaiden of the Lord, let it be to me according to your will" Luke 1:26-38. It is believed that the conception of Jesus took place at this moment and the "Festival of the Annunciation" is held on 25 March, exactly nine months before the birth of Jesus is celebrated. Durst was commissioned to carve birds on the terminals of the Winchester Cathedral Drip mouldings round the windows. The birds included woodpeckers, a thrush, robin, blackbird, wren, jackdaw, owl, seagull and a nesting swallow. [16]

Notes

  1. ↑ The panel above the south porch dates from 1950 and depicts the Good Shepherd (bearded) with a crook in his right hand and holding a lamb under his left arm. On his right are four sheep with two lambs, and on his left five sheep. Both the outside and inside surfaces of the lintel have inscriptions. On the outer surface of the lintel is inscribed-"I AM THE DOOR OF THE SHEEP" and on the inner surface of the lintel the inscription reads-"THE LORD BE WITH YOU GO IN PEACE". On the left side of the Tympanum "ET/FLET/UNAM/OVILE" is inscribed and on the right hand side "ET/UNUS/PASTOR". Durst also worked with Walter Miller on a regimental cross in the Manchester Regiment Regimental Chapel. The cross is constructed of ebony and ivory. The base of the cross is rectangular, the edging scalloped, this design repeated in two tiers on the upright stand of the cross. The edging of the cross is outlined in a relief of a wheat ear. On the arms of the cross, in ivory relief, are two kneeling angels with folded wings. On the head of the cross is an ivory crown. In the centre of the cross is a regimental sword embossed with the Lancashire Rose in relief over the sword and a motif of the crown of thorns also in ivory. The cross and candlesticks originally belonged to the Manchester Regiment, survived the war and have always been kept in the Regimental Chapel. Durst also carved several angels in the roof of the Regimental Chapel. These were in English oak and carved in 1952. These appear on the west-facing side of the tie-beams which were in-filled with eight moulded panels onto which are centrally placed two flying angels holding between them a coat of arms. One coat of arms represents the dove, the "Emblem of the Holy Spirit", another the Arms of Queen Elizabeth, The Queen Mother, who was Colonel-in-Chief of the Manchester Regiment, another the Arms of the City of Manchester, another the Arms of the Earl of Derby and another the fleur-de-lys, this being the badge emblem of the Regiment.

It opposed the professionalisation of architecture – which was promoted by the Royal Institute of British Architects at this time – in the belief that this would inhibit design. In his 1998 book, Introduction to Victorian Style, University of Brighton's David Crowley stated the guild was "the conscientious core of the Arts and Crafts Movement".
