The Passion Window

This window is highlighted by pressed jewels, and is the finest of the mid-nineteenth century windows in the church.  The design of the window appears to have been truncated.  The patterns and type of glass identify the window with the American Craftsman Movement of the mid to late nineteenth century.  The window features a white Latin cross with trefoil-shaped ends; its center entwined with a vine having five pointed leaves.  Flanking the cross are three types of flowers, which represent the seasons of Lent, Passion Week and Easter.  Pale green Lenten roses (helleborus) are just above the arms of the cross.   Flanking the lower arms of the cross is a pair of brilliantly wrought Passion flowers.  Below the Passion flowers on the left is a pair of white lilies, one open and one still in bud.
