About the Item

A stained glass window depicting the arms of the Bishop of Worcester. This large leaded panel bares the arms of the ‘See of Worcester.’ The title can be traced back to the foundation of the diocese in the year 680. This piece is full of intricate painted detail offset with deep blue glass. The shield of argent shows ten torteaux gules in a four, three, two and one formation. The colour red is associated with fortitude and sacrifice, and in this context could also represent the taking of communion. The shield is topped with a Bishop’s mitre, and other paintings of gargoyles and sceptres or spires. This panel was situated in W.H Smiths of Worcester. W.H.Smith - W. H. Smith was an iconic British newsagent founded in the 18th century. The shops found in most UK high streets often had large awnings dressed with stained glass such as this and the others we have available depicting literary figures. Supplied in a temporary pinewood frame for transit and storage.
