Baptistery Window (Burlisson & Grylls glass 1879) (Original photo kindly donated by Max Payne)

King David Window by William Morris

The ‘Mary’ window features Ss Mary Magdalene, Mary the Virgin and Mary of Bethany.  The Virgin is by Edward Burne-Jones, the others by William Morris.  All three are typical pre-Raphaelite women with characteristic long red-blond hair.  Mary of Bethany is said to have been modelled on Elizabeth Siddall, Rosetti’s mistress and later wife.  The Mary Magdalene may have been drawn from Annie Miller and the Virgin Mary is modeled on Georgina MacDonald, who married Burne-Jones in 1860.
