The geese of St Werburgh & a Virgin & Child in a stained glass window.

Thanks. Have a good afternoon Anna.

My wife, Anne, & I thoroughly enjoy the countryside & exploring churches.

There is also perhaps another link in that we have visited Cheshire a fair bit in recent times.

This a detail from the St Christopher window (1927) by #TrenaCox in Chester Cathedral.

Thank you Katie, a really interesting tour, learnt loads I didn't know about the city I live in. @aletadoran.bsky.social was telling us all about this tiny #TrenaCox window high on the wall which depicts the goose St Werburgh brought back to life!
A long stretch with my camera I have to say.

Look up!! Thanks to all who came along to today's tour looking at the #stainedglass of #TrenaCox in #Chester. Special thanks to @aletadoran.bsky.social for sharing her knowledge. And to all at St Werburgh's and St John's for the warm welcome.

Good to see that the #TrenaCox exhibition has now opened #GrosvenorMuseum #Chester

We look forward to see it soon. Curated - @aletadoran.bsky.social

The @aletadoran.bsky.social #TrenaCox exhibition in the Cathedral and the @nickytomo.bsky.social #CheshiresWonderfulWildlife Art Trail in the #CountessCountryPark have been two highs. Lows for me include the fact that parking in the city & suburbs is so badly managed.

Contrasting -
St Christopher & Christ Child

The style of the figures & their setting

#AJDavies is (in my opinion) more traditional, but #TrenaCox seems so fresh & new

Late 1920s

Linda was inspired by the #stainedglass work of the 20th C #Chester artist #TrenaCox.

Sometimes you just can’t get enough of #TrenaCox stained glass.

@stargazingaleta.bsky.social is the expert on this artist.

I think Nancy & you, Isabelle, would love the finer details of the St Christopher window, such as the flowers, birds & waves.
#TrenaCox was certainly a great artist.

She painted it - #TrenaCox 1927

The recently restored St Christopher window in The Slype @ChesterCath
#Chester as part of the #TrenaCox 100 events until 8th November.

Such beautiful faces.

👀 #Chester Cathedral

A fascinating, educational & informative time

Speakers, slides & panel of experts. We learnt a lot about “Women working in Creation & Conservation” in 20th/21st C

So apt that #TrenaCox started the “conversation” & that a major 21st C artist was in the audience.

#TrenaCox design (detail) for potential St Hugh of Lincoln window, exhibited 1924 Royal Society exhibition.

Linda Edwards watercolour & inscribed gold leaf (detail) with plants & birds which featured so much in Trena Cox’s work.

Great to see #TrenaCox 100 exhibition

To learn about this major 20th C stained glass artist, inspired by the #ArtsandCrafts movement

And to see 21st C artists responses, like that of Linda Edwards

A fantastic exhibition curated by @stargazingaleta.bsky.social
