The Art of Piety - The Visual Culture of Welsh Nonconformity

Why was it 93 years before the celebrated statue of Daniel Rowlands at Llangeitho was erected? Was it theological objections to images? Lack of money? Lack of talent? Concentration on musical gifts? Or the thought that the same money could build another chapel? All these implied questions are dealt with in Professor's Harvey's book.
