Scene of the Entombment

Have not posted for a while due to some computer issues, which I have overcome.

 

Digital manipulation of a stained glass rosette window at St. John the Evangelist Catholic Church, Green Bay, Wisconsin.

 

A droste manipulation via mathmap/gimp, then cropped and mirrored.

 

Just in case you have not seen one before, that is a picture of the Big Guy, front and center in red/white and clouds. The face of God. He's shorter than I thought.

 

The circular rosette for this window in real life is about 12 feet in diameter. The full window titled "The Entombment" was installed in the church in 1914 and was designed by Charles Lorin of the Lorin Studio (“Lorin de Chartres” Studio or Atelier Lorin) in Chartres, France (approximately 60 miles southwest of Paris). The Studio was founded by Nicolas Lorin (1815 – 1882), a master of painted and stained French art glass in 1863. His wife, Madame Veuve Lorin and his son, Charles Lorin (1874 – 1940), took over the studio upon Nicolas’s death.
