Stainglass window

“Behold, there ariseth a little cloud out of the sea.” window, St Magus Cathedral,Kirkwell,Island of Orkney,Scotland,UK. Almost all the stained glass windows were installed during the restoration. This is my favourite because the text makes me smile. It seems such an odd, trivial text for a window; “Behold, there ariseth a little cloud out of the sea.” The subject is the prophet, Elijah, predicting the end of a drought and the window is in memory of Rev Charles Clouston, the long-serving minister of Sandwick, dedicated meteorologist and founder of the Orkney Natural History Society. St Magnus Cathedral was founded in 1137, making it one of the two oldest cathedrals in Scotland, along with Glasgow. Visitors to the Orkney Museum sometimes ask for directions to the Cathedral and the staff point across the street. They think visitors looking for a 12th Century cathedral must be expecting a roofless ruin, rather than a very busy church.
