Christchurch memorial window

Memorial window, Christchurch

Canterbury College memorial window.

From the memorial window at Canterbury College (now the Arts Centre), Christchurch. The artist was an Englishman, Martin Travers, and the whole window is in the shape of Britain. The detail shows the bottom left corner where British civilisation confronts the German menace.
