The Resurrection Collection

The Resurrection Collection

To mark the Easter Season, here you’ll find ten images of the Risen Christ found in Catholic churches across Britain. This collection of stained glass windows, mosaic-work and paintings picture various scenes of Christ’s Resurrection. You might explore them during the Easter Octave (Easter Sunday and the following week), or alternatively, dip in and out throughout the fifty days of Eastertide.
