Noli me tangere
Two details from a rather charming window of the Noli Me Tangere by Martin Travers, the inimitable designer of Anglo-Catholic Congress Baroque--as well as a fair amount of Gothic and a a little that is almost unclassifiable. I particularly like the mix of simplicity, stylization and ornament characterizing the figure of the Magdalene, whose expression is somehow graceful, womanly and childlike all at once.
