Taken from a ledge. Okay. A balcony. But ledge sounds better. Outside the fifth floor of the Kennedy Library, Cal Poly, San Luis Nabisco.
This window is based on the story of Tobit of Nenevah from the Book of Tobit. Tobit is described as a man of good faith who suffers from blindness and poverty. He sent his son, Tobias, to a distant city to collect money he had deposited there, and hired a companion to accompany the youth. The companion was actually the archangel Raphael in disguise. Their journey was successful: not only was the money recovered, but medicine made from a monstrous fish Tobias encounters along the way cures Tobit's blindness. (Wikipedia)
1940 window in the Waldegrave chantry chapel of St Mary's church, Bures, Suffolk, which is inscribed, 'Of your charity pray for the souls of the builders of this chapel, Sir Wm Waldegrave Knt, d 1527 and Margery his wife d 1540' and also a whole list of their named descendants.
Although several printed sources, including Birkin Haward, D P Mortlock and a Nadfas guide, claim this window for Wright & Dix, it is clearly signed and dated with the stag and initials mark of Horace Wilkinson.
Aynho's church of St Michael is one of the strangest, most eccentric looking buildings, consisting of an awkward marriage between the late medieval tower and the bulky Georgian body, built after the original nave and chancel were demolished in 1723. The rebuilding, by Edward Wing, has left the church looking more like a stately home with a gothic tower tacked on!
There are three more fully designed stained glass windows, an east window by Thomas Willement with three medallion scenes, and two especially fine windows by C.E.Kempe on the south side, depicting Archangel Michael battling the Dragon and the Annunciation respectively.
