The Resurrection
Photo © Martin Crampin | 1870 Two-light window. The left-hand light shows Christ arising from the tomb, with an angel holding the tomb slab and a frightened soldier below. In the right-hand light, two women approach the tomb to anoint the body.technique: stained glass firm/studio: Bell & Almond Church of St Peter, Lampeter, Ceredigion south wall of the sanctuary The window has been attributed to Lavers and Barraud, who often made stained glass for the architect of the church, R.J. Withers. However, its similarity to other work in the church attributed to Daniel Bell makes it more likely to be by Bell & Almond. Given by Llewelyn Lewellin in memory of his wife Caroline, who died in 1868. |
