Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Holy Trinity - Ancient Stained Glass (14). Panel 14: A difficult scene to make out, this one. It almost looks like a mediaeval bar scene, with the monk on the left asking for a chalice of mead from the bar staff - the figure to the right looking decidedly like a serving wench. I am however, probably entirely mistaken, and this is some famous scene from the Bible - apologies therefore if I've been unintentionally sacrilegious ! I would guess that this glass is of a similar age to the two preceding panels, i.e. late C15th / early C16th. Note however the beautiful green and purple triangular corners - these two colours were particularly favoured in the C14th, so perhaps they - and even possibly the whole panel dates from this earlier time. These triangles actually have tracery patterns in them - whether this kind of detail was within the technology of the C14th I don't know, and would be very interested to find out.
