Bardzo ładny witraż!
So many crowns. Is there an explanation?
Stained glass is so beautiful, and this is a really nice one.
Przepiękny witraż!
Hello dear friends m2!
Fabulous stained glass! I'm always fascinated for this kind of subject!
Thanks so much for sharing!
Léia
beautiful!
Absolutely great, you did better than yourself last time!
@Cieldequimper - yes, there is an explanation. The person in the stained-glass window is Saint Casimir who was Polish-Lithuanian prince in 15th century and successor to the throne in Poland (so we think this is the reason why there are so many crowns). Unfortunately he died (he had tuberculosis).
More information about Saint Casimir you can find here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint_Casimir
Saint Casimir is a parton of Poland, Lithuania and young people.
Thanks for all your comments!
Fantastic shot, great composition. Spot on
Wonderful and artistic skill of this window! Great photography, too. I know how difficult it is...
Greetings from Marburg
JK.
I find this most intriguing...it seems so many religious stained glass windows have a lot of red and blues and purples...
This one has more green and "orangish" colors...
It is beautiful, just a bit different from my experience.
This stained glass is beautiful. I like how stained glass photos come out because they make it stand out even more.
Wonderful capture!!!
Beautiful! The colors are so rich and the patterns so lovely!
I think that's Mary the Queen of Heaven on top, but who's the royal saint?
@Hilda - This is Saint Casimir, Polish-Lithuanian prince from 15th century.
And thanks for the interesting information!
Jestem pod wrażeniem! Piękny witraż o misternej kompozycji. I doskonała technicznie fotografia, podziwiam!
