Life of St Julian the Hospitaller stained glass

Julian speaks to his valet, who brings him his white horse as he prepares to leave camp for home. He wears his knight's robes, his sword in its green sheath and his face covered by his helmet's visor. Section of Julian preparing himself to return home, 1215-25, from the Life of St Julian the Hospitaller window in the chapel of St Julian in the ambulatory of Chartres Cathedral, Eure-et-Loir, France. Chartres cathedral was built 1194-1250 and is a fine example of Gothic architecture. Most of its windows date from 1205-40 although a few earlier 12th century examples are also intact. It was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1979. Picture by Manuel Cohen
