painted depicting a full length figure of Archangel Raphael. Above

William Glasby joined J Powell & Co in 1876 as an apprentice and became
 their chief painter. In1891 he left Powell & Co to join Henry Holiday’s new workshop. By about 1897 Glasby was producing his own designs in a style
heavily influenced by Holiday and also Morris & Co, for whom he later worked
as a painter. He was in business on his own account from about 1919.
