It was on the north side of the Trinity Chapel ambulatory. The window was dedicated to scenes from the <i>Life of St Thomas Becket</i>. Becket, Archbishop of Canterbury, was murdered in the cathedral in 1170.\r\n\r\nThe decoration on this panel is similar to that in a medallion window now located in St Martin's Chapel in the Cathedral.\r\n\r\nSome of the surviving medieval glass was removed from the cathedral in the mid-1800s and replaced with copies. Some of the original glass was moved to different locations within the cathedral and some panels were stored in various glaziers’ workshops, and eventually sold off to private collectors. \r\n\r\nOver time, some of these panels from the cathedral have come into museum collections in Britain and in the United States.","physicalDescription":"An irregular shaped, five-sided panel, part of the background of a medallion window. Along the curved side is a border composed of small acanthus leaves in white and outside them foliated sprays in pink and yellow, with details painted in black, set on a blue ground. The border has an inner band of green and an outer band of white. The rest of the panel is filled with sprays and tufts of foliage in blue, green, yellow and white, springing from coiled interlacing stems in white, the details painted in black, set on a red ground.","artistMakerPerson":[{"name":{"text":"Unknown","id":"A1848"},"association":{"text":"","id":""},"note":""}],"artistMakerOrganisations":[],"artistMakerPeople":[],"materials":[{"text":"glass","id":"AAT10797"}],"techniques":[{"text":"pot metal","id":"x38933"},{"text":"painting","id":"x30598"},{"text":"flashing","id":"AAT53931"}],"materialsAndTechniques":"Clear, coloured  and flashed glass with painted details","categories":[{"text":"Stained Glass","id":"THES48891"},{"text":"British Galleries","id":"THES48985"}],"styles":[],"collectionCode":{"text":"CER","id":"THES48594"},"images":["2006AT1338","2006AJ7014","2019LX1833"],"imageResolution":"high","galleryLocations":[{"current":{"text":"8","id":"THES49714"},"free":"","case":"WN","shelf":"","box":""}],"partTypes":[[{"text":"Panel","id":""}]],"contentWarnings":[{"apprise":"","note":""}],"placesOfOrigin":[{"place":{"text":"England","id":"x28826"},"association":{"text":"made","id":"x28654"},"note":""}],"productionDates":[{"date":{"text":"ca. 1180-1200","earliest":"1175-01-01","latest":"1200-12-31"},"association":{"text":"made","id":"x28654"},"note":""}],"associatedObjects":[{"object":{"text":"C.7-1959","id":"O69487"},"association":""},{"object":{"text":"C.8-1959","id":"O116771"},"association":""}],"creditLine":"Given by Mr John Hunt","dimensions":[{"dimension":"Height","value":"82.0","unit":"cm","qualifier":"","date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"part":"framed","note":""},{"dimension":"Width","value":"45.4","unit":"cm","qualifier":"","date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"part":"framed","note":""},{"dimension":"Height","value":"61.3","unit":"cm","qualifier":"","date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"part":"sight","note":""},{"dimension":"Width","value":"44.2","unit":"cm","qualifier":"","date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"part":"sight","note":""},{"dimension":"Depth","value":"3.2","unit":"cm","qualifier":"","date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"part":"framed","note":""}],"dimensionsNote":"In a standard display frame.

John Hunt purchased them from Nelson's estate and later gave them to the museum.\r\n\r\nBernard Rackham postulated that this glass may have been part of the medallion window in St Martin's Chapel in the cathedral, part of which is modern.","historicalContext":"The rinceaux panels were located in the interstices of the two medallions of the Trinity chapel ambulatory window. Rectangular border panels formed the top and bottom of each window.\r\n\r\nThe decoration of this panel is similar to the background of a medallion window now in St Martin's Chapel in the cathedral. This led Bernard Rackham to believe the panel originated in this chapel.","briefDescription":"Border panel with rinceaux design. Originally from Canterbury Cathedral.
