HRH PRINCE PHILIP, DUKE OF EDINBURGH (1921-2021)

Design for new stained glass windows in the Private Chapel, Windsor Castle.

c.1996

Pencil | RCIN 981659

With the destruction of the former Private Chapel during the 1992 fire, a new space close to here was set aside as a private place of worship, and a modern stained glass window for it was commissioned from Joseph Nuttgens. Design No. 3 was developed following Prince Philip’s suggestion of highlighting the figures of the fireman and staff rescuing a painting. Design No. 4 was the final drawing from which Nuttgens made the window.
