late c17 font with relief of the dove returning to the ark . this and the other reliefs are almost identical to those on the font in another wren church, st.james piccadilly in westminster, where the font is known to be by grinling gibbons, so it seems reasonable to presume that gibbons is responsible for both fonts.
