One late Victorian and A Carrick Whalen’s Nine Modern Stained Glass Windows

 

The late Victorian East Window probably by Edinburgh based specialist glass manufacturer Ballantine is adapted from Robert Scott Lauder’s Christ Teachest Humility, perhaps the first picture in the collection of the National Galleries of Scotland, currently undergoing restoration. Robert Scott Lauder (25 June 1803 – 21 April 1869) was born in Silvermills, in a house immediately behind St Stephen’s Centre, a stone’s throw from St Vincent’s.
