'The Dunblane Memorial Window'
Holy Family Church, Dunblane
0.6m x 2.3m
Here the theme is the triumph of light over darkness, of good over evil. The left window is sombre, its mood suggesting winter and darkness. From this window a flight of doves is borne upon the wind towards the light, each dove representing one of the children who lost their lives. Every dove can be identified by a special flower it carries in its beak, and by it's ribbon of individual colour. In the centre panel the blues turn to green, the colour of spring and new life. The colours get lighter and brighter suggesting a journey from darkness into a blaze of golden light, symbolising the welcoming Holy Spirit.
