F L Griggs

Frederick Landseer Griggs came to Campden in 1903 to illustrate a travel book and stayed for the rest of his life. He devoted himself partly to a remarkable series of etchings of medieval architecture, real and imagined, and partly to a long and difficult love-affair with Chipping Campden. He made many drawings of the town and cherished its ancient buildings, hoping to save it from modernity. It filled his imagination.
