Description:
The crowned Virgin and John the Evangelist, identified by the only titulus
to appear in this window, kneel at the feet of Christ the Judge, interceding
on behalf of mankind.
Note:
The role of Christ's mother and His favourite disciple as intercessors
at the Last Judgement became an increasingly popular idea throughout the
later middle ages and was a major factor in the development of Marian
devotion.
Tituli:
(1 - bottom); "MARIA : IOH[ANU]S"
