Project Description

Daniel In The Lions Den Stained Glass Church Window

This Daniel in the lions den stained glass church window was commissioned for St. Andrews Episcopal Church in Tampa, Florida. It is a part of a series of windows created for the Children s Chapel. You can see Daniel with the lions inside the den very clearly. As appropriate for a children’s section of the church this window creates a scene as if the viewer were inside the lions den with Daniel. This scene, complete with foreground, mid-ground, and background elements helps the viewer to understand that the Biblical scenes depicted are actual historical events. By showing the scene in this way, the viewer feels much more connected to the Biblical story line and understands more that the book of Daniel is a historical story as part of the entire Bible and not a separate event that is disconnected to it.

It takes a lot more design work to create a scene like this “Daniel In The Lions Den Stained Glass Church Window” than it would be to simply show Daniel standing in a flat portrait type depiction with a lion motif border as many other works depict. Instead, the viewer feels as if they are viewing an event as it is happening. It is much more engaging to the Biblical learning that the children viewing this panel will have at St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church. We were honored to design and create this stained glass work of art church window with them.
