This window shows John Bunyan in Bedford jail and commemorates the tercentenary of the publication of The Pilgrims Progress in 1678. It was made famous when a postcard showing the window was sent to Terry Waite as he was being held captive in Beirut. A timeline of John Bunyan's life can be seen here http://www.galaxy.bedfordshire.gov.uk/webingres/bedfordshire/vlib/0.digitised_resources/bunyan_digitisation_timeline.htm .
