Saints George, Peter, and Margaret - Market Bosworth Leicetershire

This stained glass window by Charles Eamer Kempe, at St Peter 's Market Bosworth Leicestershire, is an example of late Victorian Gothic Revival art, depicting Saints George, Peter, and Margaret in three tall, richly colored panels. Each saint stands beneath an elaborate architectural canopy, rendered in delicate tracery and glowing jewel tones that catch and filter the light with remarkable depth.
