Unknown Saint Patrick Window
#98
Franz Zettler was a master of spatial realism, and that translates well into this scene of St. Patrick preaching to the High King. This window is set within a fictional niche of a scene, with the Celtic masonry in the background’s architecture providing one clue that this scene occurs in the fields of Ireland. The artist sets a serious tone with eight figures gazing at the central figure, St. Patrick. This illustration is a culmination of scenes about St. Patrick, which are represented in the artist’s use of symbolism in certain iconography, such as the shamrock in St. Patrick’s hand, symbolic of the Holy Trinity; as well as the bonfire at the bottom of St. Patrick’s feet, emblematic of the fire that could not be extinguished. Although this window does not derive from a biblical narrative, the scene aligns with the Irish Catholic faith, an indicator of the parish this window would have been originally installed in.

#111
This apse window represents one of the most popular themes for religious windows while also resembling the most famous pre-Raphaelite painting, “The Light of the World,” by English artist William Holman Hunt. The illustration comes from the biblical passage of Revelation 3:20, “Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, [then] I will enter his house.”

Title: Mary Magdalene Washing Jesus’ Feet
Date: ca. 1870
Medium: Painted Glass

Mary Magdalene Washing Jesus’ Feet
#115
This window illustrates the biblical scene of Luke 7:38, as written atop the window, in which Jesus is having dinner with a Pharisee who fails to offer hospitality. Mary Magdalene, dressed in scarlet robes symbolic of sorrow, is found kneeling washing Jesus’ feet with her tears and drying them with her hair. Franz Mayer excelled in the three-point perspective, giving the illusion of dining inside a temple with three-quarter profiles of the figures, as well as giving the illusion of a distant land past this scene.
