Liverpool Cathedral.
South Choir Aisle - Rose Window, c1911.
Designed by John William Brown (1842-1928).
Made by James Powell & Sons, Whitefriars.
Detail.
The images in the rose window show instances of God's power being demonstrated through water, namely Noah holding a model of the ark, Jesus calming the disciples in a storm, Jesus walking on water, and St Paul after his shipwreck in Malta.
John William Brown was born in Newcastle upon Tyne and trained as an artist under William Bell Scott, a friend of William Morris. He was employed by Morris & Co and later by James Powell & Sons before he became a freelance designer. He continued to undertake commissions for Powell's up to 1923, but in the later part of his career most of his work was carried out for Henry Holiday.
James Powell & Sons, situated on the site of the former Whitefriars monastery, between the Thames and Fleet Street, was producing mainly flint glass when it was bought in 1834 by James Powell, a London wine merchant. On his death the firm passed to his three sons Arthur, Nathaniel and James Cotton Powell, who in 1844 established a stained glass department. The latter benefitted from the scientific researches of Charles Winston, a lawyer by profession, who had dedicated himself to the study of medieval stained glass. It had made him aware of the shortcomings of the glass available to contemporary artists, this being often thin and garish in colour. In 1847 he encouraged experiments aimed at rediscovering the chemical components of medieval glass and persuaded the firm of James Powell & Sons to produce 'antique' glass to his recipes. It was mainly due to this collaboration that the firm was to become one of the most important studios and glass manufacturers of the Victorian period.

Both Holtzapffel & Haymarket neighbours ZigZag launched shaped jigsaws in 1910-1912 - including both selling the identical looking Bluebird design. There must have been some industrial espionage going on.
David presented two examples of Zig-Zag’s own earliest version, which was called the “New Figure Zig-Zag”. See Jigasaurus:
thejigasaurus.com/index.php/zig_zag/figure_zig_zag
Left: ZigZag 150pc The Lovers, solid wood, c1912 8.3x14.5in.
Stunning example beautifully outline-cut around the subjects and including several drop-outs. The backing board is of 1/4(6mm) thick mahogany. A message on the box-base reads To Mother & Father-Easter 1912. The box address on this example is: Carlton Street, LONDON SW.
Right: ZigZag 150pc Quite English, solid wood, c1911.
Very well made solid mahogany puzzle, accurately outline cut around the main subject area. The address on the box for this example is 8, Norris Street London SW and the puzzle is understood to have featured in a c1911 company catalogue.
Later several other British manufacturers of the era tried some shaped jigsaws, including AVN Jones, Studio, Frederick Warne, particularly with their Beatrix Potter puzzles, and Chad Valley.

South Choir Aisle - Rose Window, c1911.
Designed by John William Brown (1842-1928).
Made by James Powell & Sons, Whitefriars.
The images in the rose window relate to "journeys across the sea and undertaken in faith", namely Moses crossing the Red Sea, Saint Paul's journey to Rome, Saint Columba planting a cross on Iona, and missionaries of the Melanesian Mission landing on the Solomon Islands.

He was employed by Morris & Co and later by James Powell & Sons before he became a freelance designer.
