St. Cuthbert

A stained-glass window showing two otters with detailed, stippled fur, one on its hind legs and the other lying down and looking at the viewer, against a golden circle (possibly a saintly aura). Below the otters, there is text: Do not judge each day by the harvest your reap. There is a decorative border to the window, which the otters and golden circle are in front of, a purple knotwork-y dragon motif.

Stained glass window by Helen Whittaker, St Cuthbert’s Church, Crayke, North Yorkshire (2020)

"The detail shows the Tale of the Affectionate Sea Otters who were reputed to have warmed & dried Cuthbert's feet after a night of him meditating & praying whilst standing in the sea."
