Life of St Julian the Hospitaller stained glass window, Chartres cathedral, France

Julian holds an oar and rows Christ across the river, representing the fact that each time he has done this for someone else, it has been in Jesus name. The mast is in the form of a cross. This is a scene of forgiveness and redemption. Section of Julian rowing Christ across the river, 1215-25, from the Life of St Julian the Hospitaller window in the chapel of St Julian in the ambulatory of Chartres Cathedral, Eure-et-Loir, France. Chartres cathedral was built 1194-1250 and is a fine example of Gothic architecture. Most of its windows date from 1205-40 although a few earlier 12th century examples are also intact. It was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1979. Picture by Manuel Cohen
