Description
One of three windows created for the Chapel as part of Collyer Family donation. Dr. Collyer was a Deputy People’s Warden in 1964 and People’s Ward in 1965. The windows were dedicated on December 8, 1969. The image depicts the Holy Family: Joseph standing behind a seated Virgin Mary, who holds the Christ Child. Mary is seated on a bench that is lined with hay. From the top of the image golden rays from a star radiates down upon the figures. This star symbolizes the coming of Christ and references the Star of Bethlehem. Location: Chapel, east wall, south corner Lead Investigator: C. Cody Barteet (cbarteet@uwo.ca). Photograph: C.
