Building Name: St. Paul's Episcopal ChurchCity: Jackson
Window Shape: 3 (arched)
Subject/Title of Window: Resurrection
Brief Description of Subject: Angel sits before the empty tomb, pointing heavenward. Three women have arrived to find an empty tomb (there is a lighted candle burning in the opening of the empty tomb symbolizing Christ who is risen) in the panel above the Angeler. There are 3 advent dressed in red and white figures and some children. The top figure appears to be a church blessing the children. The top figure appears to the Christ Blessing the children. The male figure in the lower left holds a book and is meant to be St. Paul, as those are his symbols.
The woman, lower right, holds an anchor, the Christian symbol of Hope and stability in the Faith.
She could be a reference to Dame Julian of Norwich a 14th century anchoress (members of the anchorites- a religious order devoted to Christian charity and prayer)
This window is English and was installed in 1913. So the reference to an English woman of the church is possible.
The window is panted in the Pre-Raphaelite Style typical of the HB and B Studio.

The MSGC is a constantly evolving database. Not all the data that has been collected by volunteers has been sorted and entered. Not every building has been completely documented.
All images in the Index are either born-digital photographs of windows or buildings or are scans of slides, prints, or other published sources. These images have been provided by volunteers and the quality of the material varies widely.
If you have any questions, additions or corrections, or think you can provide better images and are willing to share them, please contact donald20@msu.edu
