Detail of the 1885 window by Clayton & Bell in St Michael's church, Linlithgow, Scotland. The theme is Creation, specifically as described in Psalm 104, with the embellishment of pictures of sailing ships in honour of the Challenger Expedition of 1872.

The window is dedicated to the memory of local marine biologist, Charles Wyville Thomson, who was both born and died in Linlithgow. Thomson is remembered as being chief scientist on the Challenger Expedition, a global zoological and hydrographic survey which contributed hugely to the study of oceanography and sea life.
