Jesus reveals his Divinity on a mountain before his three closest apostles, with the ancient Hebrew prophets Moses and Elijah beside him. A glowing transfigured Christ stands on a rainbow above Peter, John and James who are overwhelmed by the vision.

Lavers and Barraud (and later, Westlake) was a renowned London firm producing windows from 1855 until 1921. They were part of the Gothic Revival movement that renewed English church architecture in the 19th century. The presence of this brilliant window in a small Canadian church 100 km south of Regina is a remarkable stroke of luck.
