This detail of the Magnificat window (1501) at Great Malvern Priory, spans three lights and represents the Coronation of the Virgin.
In this image the Virgin Mary is on a background of gold within a blue vesica. The two figures (now lost) above her would have been God and Christ, the Holy Spirit in the shape of a dove is still present.
The figures outside of the vesica are on the left Adam with spade, King David with lyre. To the right on the top is a group of angels one with a harp, below them is Moses, then a broken figure, and finally Abraham with sword.
