Engraved Screen of Saints and Angels, Coventry Cathedral, Engraved Glass
John Hutton's Screen of Saints and Angels forms the clear glass west wall of Coventry Cathedral, completed for the cathedral's consecration in 1962. Tall figures of saints and angels were engraved into the panes with hand-held grinding wheels, and the ruins of the bombed medieval cathedral can be seen through them.
