1852

Two-light window. In the left-hand light a nimbed female figure kneels before a crucifix, holding a pastoral staff, crowned and wearing a grey monastic habit. In the right-hand light nimbed male figure restores the head of a nimbed female figure with long flowing hair.


firm/studio: William Wailes

St Beuno's Jesuit Spirituality Centre, Tremeirchion, Denbighshire
chapel

The scene showing the resurrection of Winefride is perhaps based on the 1583 fresco by Antonio Circignani (Il Pomarancio) in the chapel of the Venerable English College in Rome.

Perhaps the kneeling figure on the left is also Winefride.
