Stained Glass Window- The Cathedral Chartres
This stained glass rose window is from Chartres Cathedral in France. In it the virgin mother is depicted with the Christ child. The blue color in this window is so unique that despite efforts, it has never been accurately replicated. The window is so loved that it is worshiped, a typical occurrence for participants of the Cult of Mary. They usually worship statues and other objects, not usually windows, which makes this window even more special. It has been called the most beautiful stained glass window in existence. For a woman to be so so revered says much about the respect these people have for women.
