Bradford Cathedral - Illuminated Window - Stained Glass
Bradford Cathedral.
Cathedral Church of St Peter.
North Ambulatory.
Illuminated Window.
Detail: Salvatore Mundi is by architect Albert Moore.
Made by Morris, Marshall, Faulkner & Co, 1864.
This was the central piece of the William Morris window which was originally inserted in the south wall at the eastern end of what is now the south ambulatory, but was then part of the old chancel. The original south chancel window, from 1864, has been re-sited in three locations - the west walls of the transepts, and the illuminated window in the north ambulatory. This was originally a perpendicular window of five cinquefoil-headed lights beneath three tiers of tracery.
The central figure of this window, Salvatore Mundi, is by the architect Albert Moore. The angels, some playing harps and dulcimers, others holding palms, wreaths and chaplets, were originally fitted into the tracery at the top of the old window, and were designed by William Morris. The Pelican feeding its young was designed by Philip Webb. The glass was refurbished in 1991 by York Glaziers Trust and repositioned in 1992 as a memorial to historian and archivist Mary Lister.
