The web site of Dr. Claire Gapper
Welcome to my web site which is devoted to British Renaissance plasterwork. Initially, it contains 'Decorative Plasterwork in City, Court and Country, 1530-1640'. This is the updated and corrected text of my thesis 'Plasterers and Plasterwork in City, Court and Country c.1530-c.1660', Courtauld Institute of Art, 1998.
