Good Friday

St Mary at the cross of Jesus

 

Today is Good Friday.

There are two stained glass windows in St Mary’s Chapel which record the crucifixion and death of Jesus.

This window is the right hand light of the window of the south aisle of the Chapel and shows Mary, his mother grief-stricken together with ‘the disciple who Jesus loved’ with Jesus on the cross in the background. The window was created in 1900 by Douglas Strachan and was the first stained glass window at the start of a distinguished career.
