Part of the 'Magnificat' window at Great Malvern Priory. This image is of the Archangel Uriel, the face of which has been lost.

Uriel is the fourth of the Archangels after St Michael, Gabriel, and Raphael. However, he is not mentioned in the bible but in the Apocrypha texts where he is said to be one of the angels that will rule at the end of the world.
