#StGeorgesDay. “How the good Knight St. George of England slew the dragon and set the Princess free,” a glowing #stainedglass panel designed by Dante Gabriel Rossetti. Note the coiling tail—it's been a real battle! The princess can't bear to look! https://victorianweb.org/art/stainedglass/dgr/4.html. #stainedglass
