Centre: 4 clerks carry a reliquary while the faithful kneel; top: cured cripples discard their crutches; right: pilgrims kneel and pray or sing in front of a priest holding a processional cross; bottom: a paralysed man is healed; left: a bishop blesses the shrine and others kneel in prayer. Third medallion of the Miracles of Our Lady stained glass window, 1200, depicting miracles of healing and the faith of pilgrims, in the nave of Chartres Cathedral, Eure-et-Loir, France. This window was destroyed in 1816 and restored in 1927 under Lorin. Chartres cathedral was built 1194-1250 and is a fine example of Gothic architecture.
