1864

Two-light window. The left-hand light depicts a standing figure of Christ with two women, one of whom kneels below. The right-hand light depicts Christ between two male figures, one of whom carries a staff.


firm/studio: Lavers & Barraud

Church of St Brynach, Nevern, Pembrokeshire
south wall of the sanctuary

Given in memory of George Thomas Bowen, died 1861.

The scenes depict the theme of resurrection. The Risen Christ appears to Mary Magdalene and another woman. That the scene on the right is that of the journey to Emmaus is suggested by the staff held by one of the figures. Christ's foot also appears to show the wound suffered at his death.
