Edward Reginald Frampton: The Passage of the Holy Grail to Sarras, 1907

Edward Reginald Frampton (1870-1923) was an English painter who specialized in murals, specifically war memorials at churches. He painted in a flat, stately style, and was influenced by French Symbolism. He also worked in stained glass, most probably learning from his father, Edward Frampton, who was a stained-glass artist. His work usually depicted symbolic subjects and landscapes.

Frampton's art is influenced by his early work in stained glass and the Pre-Raphaelites, notably Edward Burne-Jones. His subjects are usually religious or partially religious, and he created many mural paintings, mainly in tempera, for churches. He exhibited at the Royal Academy, the Paris Salon and International Art exhibitions.

The Way of the Holy Grail, Route of Knowledge, Path of Peace, is a spiritual journey rooted in the Christian tradition that began in Jerusalem two thousand years ago and extends through three European countries. From ancient legends to contemporary movies, the Holy Grail has been an object of mystery and fascination for centuries.
