"St Frideswyde' And 'st Bridget" by Selwyn Image is a notable work within the realm of stained glass art, reflecting the intricate craftsmanship and artistic vision of its creator. Selwyn Image (1849–1930) was an influential figure in the Arts and Crafts Movement, a period that emphasized traditional craftsmanship, the use of simple forms, and the beauty of natural materials. Image's work is characterized by its detailed design, vibrant color palette, and the integration of medieval artistic influences with contemporary aesthetics.

The piece "St Frideswyde' And 'st Bridget" exemplifies Image's dedication to religious and historical themes, portraying two significant female saints. St. Frideswide, the patron saint of Oxford, is celebrated for her piety and dedication to the Christian faith, while St. Bridget of Kildare, one of Ireland's patron saints, is revered for her wisdom, generosity, and the numerous miracles attributed to her. The depiction of these saints in stained glass serves not only as a devotional object but also as a testament to the rich cultural and spiritual heritage they represent.

Image's approach to stained glass was heavily influenced by his background in both fine arts and design. He studied at the Royal Academy Schools and later became a prominent member of the Art Workers' Guild, where he collaborated with other leading artists and craftsmen of his time. His work in stained glass is noted for its meticulous attention to detail, harmonious compositions, and the ability to convey profound spiritual narratives through the medium of colored glass.

"St Frideswyde' And 'st Bridget" stands as a significant example of Selwyn Image's contribution to the revival of stained glass art in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It reflects the broader artistic and cultural movements of the period, while also highlighting the enduring appeal of religious iconography in visual art. Through this work, Image has left an indelible mark on the history of stained glass, inspiring future generations of artists and craftsmen.
