Stained Glass
Set into a 13th century window, in the south ambulatory of the choir (bay 44) of Chartres Cathedral, this is one of the most celebrated medieval artworks in the Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Chartres.It dates primarily to c. 1180 CE, with later additions around 1225 CE, making it a rare survivor from the pre-1194 fire that destroyed the earlier Romanesque cathedral.
The Cathedral of St Stephen, Bourges contains a large number of medieval and renaissance stained glass. The glass panels date from 1210 - 1620 and represents Saints, Apostles, Prophets, and Bible stories.
The above rose window in the west of the church was built in the last part of 14th century.

This fragmentary but evocative window from Holy Cross Church, Pattishall, preserves elements of a 14th-century English stained glass narrative cycle. The surviving lights depict a kneeling orant figure with hands raised in prayer, and beside it, a group showing Christ with a disciple or saint, set beneath delicately painted Gothic architectural canopies.
