Lot Essay

The study is for the figure of Virtue in the three-light window, which Holiday designed for the Chapel of St Andrew's University, Fife. The Window dates from 1886 and was made from Holiday's design by James Powell & Sons. The Original design for the window is at Birmingham City Art Gallery.
