The House of Vanity is a photographic narrative that shows the contrasting view of the word "vanity" in a Catholic dominated environment, an abbey church. Picture: 1. VANITAS 2.

MRS. JONES & HER SNOWBALL & NAPOLEONS 4. THE GREAT VANITY DELUGE The pride of the peacock is the glory of God. - William Blake 5. ASSISI'S EVE & ADAM
