A most interesting period of British stained glass

St John's Seven Kings is mentioned in a new Wikipedia entry for the artist Louis B. Davis. Davis designed the Nativity window at St John's, originally located in our baptistry and now part of our sanctuary.

The new entry has been compiled by researcher Gordon Lawson as part of his research into the work of Christopher Whall and his followers. Lawson started with Whall himself:

This led him to Whall's daughter, Veronica:

He then moved to Edward Woore, Margaret Chilton and Marjorie Kemp and Karl Parsons:

He plans similar works on Caroline Townsend  Mary Hutchinson, Arnold Robinson, Paul Woodroffe and a few others so that when he has finished he will have set out a reasonable source of research information on a most interesting period of British Stained Glass.
