St Martin In The Fields; by James Gibbs 1720-26. Venetian window exterior


St Martin-in-the-Fields, Trafalgar Square, London. Church designed by James Gibbs 1720, completed 1726 in the English Baroque style. Venetian window at the east end. The glazing was installed in 2008 by the Iranian artist Shirazeh Houshiary: her design uses clear glass within a lattice of curvilinear glazing bars, subtly distorted to suggest a cross with an oval at its centre.
