| Description | St. Michael was one of the most popular commemorative subjects for stained glass windows. The archangel's status as a warrior saint resonated with families and parishioners wishing to honour their sons. The Melbourne stained glass firm, Mathieson & Gibson, was especially skilled in the use of silver stain to create the golden armour of St. Michael and they adapted it for other commemorative windows in churches across Victoria, including at Tyrendarra, Geelong and Hawthorn in Victoria and at Claremont, WA. |
