Cher

Window w.212, located high in the south choir clerestory of Bourges Cathedral, dates from c.1210–1215 and belongs to the earliest glazing phase of the High Gothic choir. The window presents two Evangelists, Mark and Luke, and one Apostle, Matthias. 

This trio forms part of a wider apostolic–evangelist cycle distributed around the clerestory, each figure shown as a monumental standing saint set within a richly patterned Gothic frame.
