Stained Glass At Regis College

At this time of year many of us in the northern hemisphere start craving colour and with that in mind here is a pic of one of the stained glass windows from the St Joseph Chapel at Regis College, the location of the stairway I showed you on Sunday. The chapel was originally part of St Joseph's School and was built in the 1960s with the windows being good examples of the 60s style.

    Can't beat a good dash of colour, and this window certainly supplies that!

    I never gave it any thought but after viewing all these "vortex" photos coming out from the midwest and beyond, I guess color would be a prized commodity.

    Stained-glass windows always brighten my day! Interesting symbolism here.

    The sun must be shining at least even if it's cold -- cuz that window just glows!

    Great example of modern stained glass, the reflections inside the room must be amazing when the sun is shining.

    Oh, I like that. Actually I love stained glass. If I built my own house I'd commission one.

    You have a sun and a blue sky and loads of color. What is there to complain about? Except maybe the temperature . . .

    You are so right about missing colour at this time of the year. I hadn't thought of filling the void with stained glass. I'm off to visit a church or two

    «Louis» understands that craving for color the northern climes cause in the winter!

    Stained glass is, as you imply, as good antidote - and, yes, the window you show is very true to the '60s style.
