Heraldic glass. About 1537-1542

These panels are part of a series commissioned by Sir Edmund Knightley for the great hall at Fawsley. The heraldry stresses his own ancestry but also the more aristocratic pedigree of his wife, a sister of the Earl of Oxford. Glass of this detail and complexity could only be made by the most skilled workshops.
