Notre-Dame shines as an example of early Gothic structure with its massive flying buttresses that offset the weight of the tall walls.

This tam project is based on the upper rose window of the south façade in Notre-Dame, and is the third in a series of stained-glass inspired tams Laura Ricketts have designed and knitted. The window was part of the attic set in the timber frame. This explains its demise in the fire, while the three ancient stained-glass rose windows in the sanctuary survived. Laura interpreted this upper rose window in the beautiful colors familiar to the ancient glass, but she hopes those who want to respond to the burning will replace the blues and pinks with oranges and reds for the fire.
