S9  The Crucifixion and Resurrection

S9To the greater glory of God in everlasting remembrance of Thomas Maude who died 25th March 1931.  This window is placed here by his widow.

The left hand light (left) depicts the Crucifixion with Mary his mother and John standing at the foot of the Cross. In the circles at the peak of the light are the sponge and ladder, the crown of thorns and nails and the pincers and hammer, all symbols of Jesus’s Crucifixion.  The small picture at the bottom shows Jesus being laid in the tomb.

The right hand light depicts the Resurrection and the small picture below shows Jesus meeting Mary Magdalen in the garden. The tracery at the top shows the Lamb of God, Christ’s seamless robe and the cock which crowed after Peter had denied Jesus during his trial.

Designed by James Hogan, cartoon by Harry Stammers, made by James Powell & Son in 1944 at a cost of £275.
