A.H. Gerrard, born 1898, professor of the Slade School of Art. London, was commisssioned by the Cunard White Star Line, circa 1935, to carved a series of four such pieces depicting 'Rural Life in England'. The four panels were later fitted prominently in the First Class Restaurant of the R.M.S. Britannic.

We are most grateful to Kenneth Vard for his help in preparing this catalogue entry.
