| Description |
PLEASE, NO invitations or self promotions, THEY WILL BE DELETED. My photos are FREE to use, just give me credit and it would be nice if you let me know, thanks. This window represents the tree of life. This theme stems from the meditations of the Franciscan saint Bonnaventure (1221-1274) on the virtues and kindness of the Redeemer. The branches around the central trunk illustrate twelve virtues. Towards the top of the tree, Christ appears nailed to the red cross that is attached to the green trunk of the tree. The tree thus becomes the tree of the cross and the tree of eternal life. It was restored in 1853, Noah's Ark was added in the lower left-hand corner. The Ark of Alliance was added on the right-hand side, giving birth to the tree of Life of Original Sin. The Tree of Life was not born of paradise or of original sin, but of the crucifixion of Christ. |
