Life of St Apollinaire stained glass window, Chartres cathedral, France

Above l-r; Apollinaire in prison with an armed jailer, while an angel brings him food, Apollinaire prays while refusing to sacrifice to the false idol in the temple, while the temple falls to pieces behind him, and the pagans watch the collapsing temple in disbelief. Below l-r; Rufus meets Apollinaire in Ravenna, Apollinaire resurrects his daughter from the dead and the judgement of Apollinaire, from the Life of St Apollinaire stained glass window, 13th century, on the Southern transept wall of Chartres Cathedral, Eure-et-Loir, France. This window depicts the life of St Apollinaire, first bishop of Ravenna, and the hierarchy of the angels. 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
