Part of a series of three stained glass windows made for St.Ethelreda’s Church, an important medieval building which was built as the London chapel of the Bishops of Ely. Whall was attached, as a layman, to the Rosminian religious community at St. Ethelreda’s and was asked to design the glazing of the nave windows of the church, his first commission in stained glass. Disagreements between Whall and Saunders resulted in Whall losing the commission. At some point between the early 1880s and 1900, the panel was removed from the church and was later found in storage at the Rosminian Convent in Loughborough. The panel was conserved in 1999 with a grant from the Glazier’s Trust.
