Place of origin |
Stained glass design, in watercolour, for the West window of Malvern Link depicting the Arrest of St. Peter. A woman betrays St. Peter by pointing to his house. A soldier knocks at its door while St. Peter prays on the roof and experiences a vision of Noah's arc. The design for the window frame is painted in black watercolour and cut out and superimposed onto the design for the stained glass itself. The design is mounted onto a small rectangular piece of card on the back of which is a slight sketch of perhaps a map or plans of buildings.
