The Man. The Angel of St Matthew Panel #16002
A significant symbol in Christianity for centuries, representing St Matthew, one of the four evangelists in the New Testament. The image of the Angel or the man, representing Matthew, serves as a powerful reminder of the merging of humanity and divinity. It is a representation of the importance of studying the gospel and following the teachings of Jesus. The wings signify his divine inspiration, and they also represent the human potential to reach great spiritual heights.
Adding stained glass depictions of the Tetramorph to a church or home can provide both beauty and spiritual significance. The use of vibrant colors and intricate designs can bring the image to life, making it a focal point of the space. This can serve as a reminder to balance the human and divine aspects of life, inspiring individuals to strive for spiritual growth and enlightenment.
A religious window like this would make a good addition to a house of worship or a hospital chapel.
