- Architectural ceiling boss with four faces, probably from the Church of St. Andrew at Cullompton
- Artist
- Artist Unknown, England
- Physical Description
- This ceiling boss features four faces with traces of paint that are arranged in a radial pattern with the crowns of their heads converging on a single, central point. Two of the faces are female, identifiable by the wimples worn on their heads, while the other two, wearing small pointed caps and sporting beards, are male. The symmetrical regularity of the piece is counterbalanced by subtle asymmetries introduced by differences in detail and the sequence of facial types.

At the very center of the piece, along the implied dividing line between the two sides, is a relatively small box.
