Four-light window with standing figures of Moses and Isaiah at either side, with angels betwen.

technique: stained glass


Trinity Methodist Church, Penarth, Vale of Glamorgan
north clerestory

Both main figures are subtitled 'The Law' and 'The Prophets', Moses holding the ten commandments and Isaiah holding a scroll which reads 'Comfort ye my people' (Isaiah 40:1). The angels hold the text 'Thou shalt have no other Gods before me' (Exodus 20:3) and a further text above reads 'Rejoice and be glad'.

The window is later than those around the walls of the nave at ground level, and probably dates from the mid-twentieth century.
