archbishop, who stands facing to sinister in a canopied
niche with spiral columns, wearing a mitre and grey alb, and with a
cross staff. White glass, with trace-line, stipple shading, matt

some paint loss; other disparate fragments used to make up figure,
including hand carrying book, piece of drapery with Franciscan
triple-knotted cord, and the feet and lower drapery of seated figure
(possibly of God the Father). It has been suggested that the figure
may represent St Louis of Toulouse, but he does not carry a cross
staff, and the triple-knot on its own does not support the
identification.

made-up figure is set within a confection of large-scale canopy
pieces of varying origin, including two seated lions at the top.
