St Michael and St Deiniol
about 1897
Two-light window with standing figures.
Church of St Deiniol, Llanddaniel Fab, Anglesey
north wall of the nave
The winged figure of Michael, standing over the dragon, is easily identifiable, however the figure on the right is less certain. Standing with a harp, and with the initial D above, the figure may represent the Old Testament David. However, the figure is not crowned, but has a halo and holds his hand in blessing. The figure may perhaps be the patron of the church, Deiniol Fab, or his better-known father, Deiniol.
