Holy Redeemer, Webster Grove
Visited Holy Redeemer Church, in Webster Grove, MO.
The first impression is that this is one big window, especially for a single figure - at least 18 feet across and 25-30 feeet high.
Here is a little more detail.
This is the exterior view - it gives a better sense of the scale
This is below the big jesus in the entryway - it's rare to see what are basically storefront frames filled with stained glass. but it works...
This is from a small chapel off of the entryway.
and a detail...
and another detail...
...and just one more look at that nice reamy glass in the chapel.
and finally, the exterior of the chapel - looking very 20th century modern.
