Memorial Window Description & History
Stained Glass Window at North Brighton [now Carrum Downs] St. Luke's Anglican Church - Memorial Window Description & History
John Ferguson (1923-2010) was asked to design the commemorative window so that the subject of the soldier was integrated with the Christian message. The bold and complex result allows the windows to be read symbolically and not only as Holy Family, Crucifixion and the Resurrection but also as a soldier taking leave of his wife and child, his death in battle and hisvictory over death. Although this was a very early commission for John Ferguson and his partner Nick Papas (b.1920-), it heralded and exemplified their commitment to producing stained glass for the modern world. The war memorial window was dedicated by the Right Reverend JD McKie on Sunday 16 November 1952. St. Luke's was closed in 1991 and the building converted into apartment. The windows were gifted to the newly built church of the same name at Carrum Downs in 1992.
