| Description |
Magnificat comes from Mary's song of praise to God for making her the Mother of Jesus." Magnificat anima mea Dominum, et exsultavit spiritus meus in Deo salvatore meo" or "My soul doth magnify the Lord : and my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour". This was the last medieval window to be completed. It was made in 1501/2 and was possibly given by Henry VII - he and his son can be seen kneeling at the bottom. The window depicts the story of Incarnation, and is filled with scenes from the life of Jesus, as witnessed by his mother Mary. The narrative begins at the bottom and moves across and upwards. The large blue vesica depicts the coronation of Mary in heaven. It was made by Richard Twygge and Thomas Wodeshawe, who also created windows for Gloucester Cathedral and Westminster Abbey. |
