Stained Glass Window in Saint Patrick's Cathedral (Anglican) in Armagh

This is a detail in a large window dedicated to several Irish saints - Patrick is shown in the process of preaching or teaching, converting the Irish to Christianity. A haloed dove representing the Holy Spirit is shown in the sky, Patrick himself is depicted without a halo. The fairly accurate but hopelessly anachronistic depiction of the cathedral in the background is a curiosity.
