Eighty-six near life-size figures of the male ancestors of Christ once looked down on the choir and eastern extension of the medieval cathedral and priory church of Canterbury. Dating from the 12th-century, the surviving windows are among the oldest panels of stained glass in England. This book explores how the windows were perceived.
