medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture

Have you any of that stunning east window at Gresford - lots of Victorian reconstruction but at its heart a late medieval meditation on Mary's relationship with the 3 persons of the Trinity (including a depiction of her as her son's daughter).
Here it is on the Stained Glass of Wales site - http://stainedglass.llgc.org.uk/object/984 - scroll down for the detailed photos.
