South chancel window - Middleton Cheney

The south window of the chancel at All Saints, Middleton Cheney, contains two important stained-glass panels designed by Ford Madox Brown in 1870, created during his period of work for Morris, Marshall, Faulkner & Co. These windows are among the finest surviving examples of Brown’s contribution to Victorian ecclesiastical glass, characterised by his expressive figures, sculptural modelling, and dense narrative detail.

 

 

South Chancel Window - Warmington Warwickshire

South Chancel Window - Warmington Warwickshire

This two-light window pairs an early-life episode of Christ with a post-Resurrection encounter, creating a deliberate theological contrast between recognition at the Temple and recognition in the garden.

Left-hand light:
The Presentation in the Temple shows the Christ Child received by Simeon, whose gesture and inscription articulate fulfilment and prophecy. The figures are tightly grouped beneath an elaborate Gothic canopy, emphasising the Temple setting and the moment of recognition as Christ is identified as the promised Messiah.

St Christopher and St Anne with the Virgin - Thenford Northamptonshire

This two-light stained glass window, dating to around 1410, combines two devotional subjects of late medieval popularity: Saint Christopher in the left-hand light and Saint Anne with the Virgin Mary in the right-hand light. The pairing reflects contemporary concerns with protection, instruction, and the visible presence of holiness in everyday life.
