    Memorial Window Description & History

    Stained Glass Window at Frankston East St. Luke's Anglican Church - Memorial Window Description & History

    Sumner designed a complete cycle of windows for Edward Billson's Modernist building, one of this architect's last commissions in a long and illustrious career. The upside-down U-shaped windows were a challenging design task for Sumner which he tackled by 'floating' the badges of the Army, Navy, Air Force and Merchant Navy against a simplified quarry background. Sumner's designs for the cycle of windows for St. Luke's, East Frankston are held by the State Library of Victoria.
