This mosaic on the side of St Jude's Church, Whitechapel, is a mosaic copy of GF Watts "Time, Death and Judgement", executed by Salviati. It was given to the Barnett's as a gift from their friends and was placed on the side of the Church, but following its destruction has since moved to St Giles-in-the-Fields Church in the West End.
