Beauty in Glass

This beautiful window can be found in Lyle Kirk, Esplanade, Greenock (formerly the Old West Kirk.

 
Entitled Music, it was designed by Edward Burne-Jones in 1867/68.  He was a member of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood.  The window itself was made by William Morris & Co.

 
Isn't it absolutely beautiful?

  2. interesting Greenock stuff! I didn't know about the Burne-Jones window - will go and see it next time I'm in town. I was born in Greenock but never lived there.
