The Flight Into Egypt Stained Glass Artwork

Measures 6.5" Roundel

Heavenly light aptly describes the Fight Into Egypt window designed in 1932 by Charles Connick specifically for the Cathedral of St. John the Divine in New York City. It is a masterpiece so elaborately detailed that it contains 8,000 individual pieces of glass. Glassmasters’ adaptation pulls from a palate of over 600 colors to achieve a similar magnificence of hues in its fired reproduction. Virtually all of the world’s major cathedrals consider the Flight Into Egypt a significant work and a great expression of their living faith. St. John’s Rose Window is one of the world’s most glorious contemporary examples of this theme that dates back to the Middle Ages.
