An inscription on the Petit tomb in the churchyard of St Michael's, Lichfield, reads: "LOUISA PETIT sixth daughter of the Rev. HAYES PETIT deceased and HARRIET his wife. From a life of almost uninterrupted suffering which she bore with true Christian patience and cheerfulness she was released by a merciful providence on the 30th day of November in the Year of our Lord 1842 aged 30." 1418: 660: 357:, appeared in 1841. A tour de force in two volumes, with over 300 illustrations from watercolours by Petit himself, it sought to gather multiple examples to demonstrate the range of beauty in all historical architectural styles, from the continent as well as Britain. The underlying purpose was to counter the dogma of one "correct" style set out in 392:. The themes and objectives of his publishing and speaking were consistent: countering approaches to restoration that sought to alter medieval church buildings; calling for originality in new buildings; and the belief that contemporary architects should be able to draw on all available historical styles from both the British Isles and overseas. 262:, Petit painted to convey the spiritual beauty of nature and the precious beauty of medieval churches at risk from thoughtless restoration. Working neither for the commercial market nor for patrons, he painted to express his beliefs, his love of nature and to help explain his opposition to the dogmas of the Gothic Revival." 221:
The underlying tone of this later work is reddish, sometimes almost monochromatically so. As well as being the colour of brickwork, it may have been deliberately intended to make his watercolours visually distinctive for exhibiting in quantity at his lectures. The best of these examples were not mere

From the mid-1820s, to which the earliest of his work can be dated, until the early 1840s his watercolours tended to be more carefully completed, and smaller in size, than was the case later. This period includes landscapes and shipping, as well as more unusual subjects such as factories and mines in

In total some 10%-20% of works sold as Petit's through Sotheby's Billingshurst are believed to be by these family members and of these a large proportion by Emma. Emma, Elizabeth and Susannah lived with Petit and looked after the pictures until their deaths in the 1890s, whence they went to a son of

Whereas these started out as predominantly documentary records of specific buildings or places, subsequently professional artists began to add the ingredients of poetic idealisation, contrived rusticity and Romantic sentiment to the mix, and by the 19th century an increasingly conventionalised style
278:
A complicating factor is that Petit's sister Emma, and often other family members, travelled and painted with him. Their watercolours, similar in subject matter to Petit's but weaker artistically, were mixed with his in the disposal of his work. Because, like Petit himself, they rarely signed their

Completing approximately 12,000-15,000 watercolours, he was a faithful recorder of architecture, urban environments and natural scenery, but at the same time he succeeded in conveying the emotional impact of the buildings and scenes he portrayed. "As we can understand from the long poem he wrote at

Only since 2016 have research and conservation in relation to Petit's artistic legacy been undertaken and a number of books and articles published. So far remnants of two-thirds of his albums and folios have been identified. Up to one-third, mostly later works, including many from his more distant
270:
After Petit's death, the Architectural Exhibition Society gave over part of its annual show to an exhibition of around 300 of his watercolours, after which they disappeared. Petit left 1,000 of his drawings to different family members, and the rest (the vast bulk) passed down one family line until

More and more, Petit eschewed precise or delicate work, conveying visual impact, emotion and effect impressionistically and dramatically. About one-third of Petit's later works were landscapes - sometimes showing a distant church dwarfed by the vastness of nature, frequently focusing on individual

During extensive travels both at home and in continental Europe (as well as the Middle East), Petit painted buildings of different periods and styles with a particular focus on medieval architecture. His subject matter included landscapes, modern urban views, utilitarian structures such as bridges

Petit unites these two traditions. That he systematically inscribed the name of locations (initially on album pages, then on the versos of his paintings - and from 1854 onwards the date too) emphasises the "topographical" focus of his art. Self-effacingly, he never signed his work - as if to play
217:
In later years, especially the 1850s and 1860s, most of Petit's work was undertaken abroad. He travelled often, especially in France (where he sketched most years), Germany, Italy, and Ireland, but also completing tours to Corfu, Greece and Constantinople (1857), Spain and North Africa (1858) and

The Chapel at Caerdeon, subsequently named St Philip's, still stands and has recently received Grade 1 listing. The house at Upper Longdon ("Bumblekyte") was sold by his sisters in the 1890s, and was later demolished. The designs for both were exhibited at Architectural Exhibition Society annual

Renewed interest in Petit since 2016 has led to the publication of a number of books and articles, the founding of the Rev. J.L. Petit Society to promote awareness of his artistic and architectural legacy, and the installation of information boards in Lichfield where Petit lived and where he is

Petit's advocacy of foreign models quickly gained wide acceptance, although when he argued at a RIBA talk in 1858 that even Byzantine architecture had much to offer he had to admit to sometimes being accused of indiscriminately advocating the style of the country he had most recently visited.

But alas for the building which falls into the hands of an ignorant or presumptuous restorer! How many a noble church, that for ages has preserved its beauty in spite of accident, violence, or decay, seems to writhe and struggle under the fantastic additions and incongruous ornaments of some

His other sisters Elizabeth (Haig), Susannah and Maria (Jelf), and his sister-in-law, Amelia Reid, and Sarah Salt, his niece, also painted alongside Petit on different occasions. His wife Louisa (Reid) is believed to have painted still lifes and birds, but seems not to have been interested in

Petit's fourth sister, Emma Gentille Petit, accompanied him most frequently on painting tours from about 1845, and occasionally contributed drawings for his articles, something that he always acknowledged. She also appears to have been the one cataloguing and organising his albums and folios.

In numerous watercolours of ecclesiastical buildings, he conveyed the visual and emotional impact of churches and cathedrals individually and in their settings. Displays of his watercolours at his talks, sometimes a hundred at a time, contributed to his popularity as a speaker.

Gradually the tide turned, however. The Cambridge Camden Society (known as the Ecclesiological Society from 1845) tempered its more uncompromising architectural doctrines, and Scott himself came to champion "faithful" restoration of ancient churches.
