Man & Woman
Two fine contemporary windows by Tom Denny were installed in the north east corner of Great Malvern Priory in 2004 to celebrate the Millennium. The two windows take inspiration from Psalm 36, verses which describe aspects of the nature of God.
The windows' broken lines and silvery tones subtly echo the ancient glass that survives elsewhere in the church, intentionally so since some even remains in the traceries and canopied heads of the main lights of both windows themselves and has been carefully incorporated into the design.
The imagery is subtle and layered, revealing itself gradually to the onlooker the closer one contemplates the work. The windows are fine examples of Denny's densely packed, detailed imagery and painterly style, overlain upon a rich use of acid-etching and plating layers of glass to create patches of richly varied colour.
