Summary

Description
English: This large stained glass window is installed in the North Transept of the Cathedral Basilica of the Assumption in Covington, Kentucky. The upper portion of the window represents the Coronation of Mary after her Assumption into Heaven. The lower portion is a depiction of the Council of Ephesus, 431 AD which, in affirming the Divinity of Christ, gave Mary the title Theotokos (God Bearer, or Mother of God). This window, created by Mayer and Company of Munich, Germany, is claimed to be the largest stained glass window in a church anywhere in the world. It was installed in 1911. A full restoration of the Cathedral including this window was completed in 2001.
