The Cathedral of St. John the Baptist is the mother church of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Savannah. French refugees from Haiti organized this congregation in 1799, and this cathedral was built one hundred years later. I feature a dramatic mural which is suffused in spiritual light, while the mural itself moves from darkness into the light supplied by two stained glass windows. Three ornate lanterns rhythmically lead the eye to the mural and the pair of stained glass windows. I base this image on the overall theme of bringing light out of darkness, an acknowledged function of religion itself.
