Student’s post:
The rose windows of gothic cathedrals represent the importance of eternity and personal salvation. The religious purpose of the rose window is to encourage man to strive for perfect form, just as the rose window is symmetrical and purposeful. The circle is filled with organic shapes that mimic rose petals. A Rose is a universal symbol of beauty. The detailed stained-glass designs are intricate and often filled with many colors. The stained-glass window could also have a stone overlay. Rose windows were often placed at the top, center of cathedrals. The window could be seen from the outside and inside the cathedral, encouraging the viewer to look up. The window reflected the state of transcendence that one should achieve. The light that shined through the windows filled the cathedral, just as Christ, the ultimate light of the world, fills the heart of man.
