EDITORS COMMENTS
This stained glass window, titled "Faith, 1867" transports us back to the Victorian era with its intricate details and vibrant colors. Created by the renowned artist Edward Coley Burne-Jones in collaboration with Morris, Marshall, Faulkner & Co. , this masterpiece adorns The Old West Kirk in Greenock, UK. The scene depicted in this neo-gothic artwork is filled with symbolism and allegory. A woman stands at the center of the composition, representing Faith herself. Clutching a Bible close to her heart, she exudes spirituality and virtue. Surrounding her are elements that further enhance the religious theme - a dragon symbolizing evil defeated through faith, an orchard abundant with apples and pomegranates signifying biblical references to knowledge and temptation. The attention to detail is remarkable; every element has been meticulously crafted from colorful shards of glass. The play of light passing through these fragments creates a mesmerizing effect that adds depth and life to the artwork. Burne-Jones' work is deeply rooted in Pre-Raphaelite aesthetics – bright colors, botanical motifs inspired by natural history studies – all contributing to its distinctive Victorian Gothic style. As we gaze upon this stunning piece of art captured beautifully by Alastair Carew-Cox's lens, we can't help but be transported into a world where faith intertwines with beauty and spirituality reigns supreme.
