Two women seated in church
Gwen John continued to make drawings in church from the early 1920s until the end of her career and these are very difficult to date. She was once criticised for drawing in church, but responded, "I like to pray in Church like everyone but my spirit is not capable of praying for a long time at once – if I remove all that time there would not be enough happiness in my life".
