Description: The Seven Churches of Asia in the East Window at York Minster. Medieval glass designed by John Thornton. Saint John (bottom left) is told by an angel to write to the seven churches of Asia about his vision. John Thornton's glazing design is unique as it combines all seven churches into one image. Each is represented by an archbishop standing in a shrine-like building. Photograph taken whilst the East Window was under repair, and restored sections were being displayed to visitors.
