I sent out very few Christmas cards this year. Instead, at noon each day throughout the Twelve Days of Christmas, I am offering an image or two as my virtual Christmas cards, without comment.
My image for my Christmas Card at noon today (3 January 2026) is the Nativity scene in the Robinson Window in the North Chapel in the Collegiate and Parish Church of Saint John the Baptist in the Spon Street area in the centre of Coventry.
The window by George Cooper Abbs of Exeter was installed in 1959 in memory of the Revd Augustus Gossage Robinson, Rector in 1896-1918, who died in 1956 aged 92. The window depicts the five Joyful Mysteries of the Rosary: the Annunciation and the Visitation (left), the Nativity (centre), and the Presentation of Christ in the Temple, and Finding Christ in the Temple (right).
