1874

Three-light window. The crowded central scene at the empty tomb is flanked by standing figures of Luke (left) and John (right). In the upper central light Christ is seated in Majesty with orb and sceptre, between angels with censers.

size: 56 cm (width of each light)
firm/studio: probably Bell & Almond

Church of St Gwrthwl, Llanwrthwl, Powys
east wall of the chancel (window number: I)

The window may be tentatively attributed to Daniel Bell, who was working in partnership with Richard Almond at the time. Contemporary work by these artists can be found at the Church of St Peter, Lampeter.

Given in memory of the Revd John Eagles in 1874 by his daughter Emma Jane Graham Clarke.
