About this piece
back to topAn antique ecclesiastical stained glass panel of a biblical scene. Dating to circa 1890, this well painted large panel displays vivid colours and quality craftsmanship. It would make a stunning feature window flooded with natural light into a main room or ecclesiastical building.
The panel depicts a modern take of Jesus ‘Calming a Storm’ from Matthew 8:23-27:
“And when he was entered into a boat, his disciples followed him. And behold, there arose a great tempest in the sea, insomuch that the boat was covered with the waves: but he was asleep. And they came to him, and awoke him, saying, Save, Lord; we perish. And he saith unto them, Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith? Then he arose, and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm. And the men marvelled, saying, What manner of man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey him?”
