Index of all Stained Glass
Window 204 consists of two tall lancets forming part of the celebrated early thirteenth-century clerestory glazing of Bourges Cathedral. The saints represented, Andrew on the left and John the Evangelist on the right, are shown as full-height standing figures beneath architectural canopies, framed by the characteristic geometric borders of the Bourges workshop.
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.
Donated by Thibault VI count of Chartres, in 1217, on behalf of Thomas count of Perche, this window illustrates the signs of the zodiac on the right hand side of the window, and the labouirs of the months on the left hand side. The four central quatrefoils are split between the months and the zodiac.
