A England Burne Jones’s Divine Allegories – Charity

Charity

Ruby red

Pure, vibrant red to slightly purple, enhanced by a blazing hologram.

This stained glass window depicts Charity in a flowing red dress and carrying a small child in one arm while two older children cling to her for support and protection. In her right hand she holds a flaming fire.

Charity represents beauty, compassion, kindness and sharing with others. Red symbolises the highest forms of love that are associated with life, willpower, courage, passion, assertion, survival and spiritual fervour.
