Stained glass window depicting Charles Williams (at top) Owen Barfield (right), C. S. Lewis (bottom), and J. R. R. Tolkien (left.) All were members of The Inklings.
The Summer of Narnia begins yet again. This year, there’s plenty of excitement as Greta Garwig’s Magician’s Nephew movie continues to film and interest in Narnia is again beginning to crest.
Above is a stained glass designed by Marc Burckhardt depicted the Inklings’ best known members. Williams and Barfield are less known than the two writers, but perhaps they shouldn’t be. They likely had a huge unsaid influence on both men.
Speaking of stained glass, to the left is a window from St. George’s Episcopal Church in Dayton, Ohio. It depicts Lewis with a rocket ship, imp, and lion, representing his Planets Trilogy, Screwtape Letters, and Narnia series, respectively.
You can see all the windows, some of which depict modern figures such as Lewis, here.
BTW, the shield the lion is holding is that of Oxford University, where Lewis once taught.
