Abstract

A set of eight expressionist stained glass windows in the church of St. Mary Magdalene in Dobrodzień, originating from 1934-1935, is finalised by the window Students on the road to Emmaus. The aim of this stained glass window, in the view of Rev. Jan Gładysz (1881-1967), the parish priest at the time, was to encourage reflection on the subject of “Man’s journey with God”. The article is an attempt of conducting thorough interpretation of the individual elements of the composition of the work, which allow for a deeper penetration into the content of the reflection proposed by the parish priest of Dobrodzień.
