(27) and (28) St Bede and St Cuthbert, Durham (1) and (2)
Durham Cathedral is of particular significance to Clark and here the two great Northern saints
are shown within this setting.
In these works, the figure of Bede [left] is taken from a medieval manuscript and Cuthbert [right] is based on a fresco in the Cathedral's Galilee chapel. In the centre is part of the west window showing the tree of life, with 'Christ in Majesty' rising above Cuthbert's tomb. At the top is the magnificence of the Rose window along with a fragment of stained glass depicting a betrothal scene and [ bottom] a small piece of glass showing a bird.
Clark has created many variations on this theme.
