God the Father
– Become!
is the title of a
stained glass
window, designed by
Stanisław Wyspiański
, in
St. Francis's Church
in
Kraków
. The medieval
Franciscan
church was consumed by the
great fire of 1850
and then rebuilt in
Neo-Gothic
style. Decoration of the interior was commissioned to Wyspiański, an
Art Nouveau
playwright, painter and designer, and a leading artist of the
Young Poland
movement, who defined the church's character with his floral
frescoes
and impressive stained glass windows.
