The Rose Window

This colorful window, also in the spirit of the thirteenth century, symbolizes the ultimate Kingship of Christ.  All of the emblems used in the composition are drawn from passages in the Book of Revelation.  In the center is Our Lord, enthroned and crowned, with the world at His feet.  Around Him are the seven golden candlesticks and the sun and moon.  In each of the eight large petals of the Rose is a medallion filled with an angel bearing a shield.  Beginning at the top, the symbols emblazoned on these shields are the Towers of the New Jerusalem, Balances, Trumpet, Censer, Chained Red Dragon, Seven-Sealed Book, Keys and Harp.  The ornament is arranged to form a glowing cross in red against the predominating blues of the window.
