St. John Window: Right Lancet, medallion D

The feeding of the multitude (S. John VI.11: "When he had given thanks, he distributed ..."). The actual scene shown is S. John VI.8-9 — Andrew brings the boy with the basket of food to Jesus as the crowd sits. The symbolic miracle expresses the feeding of souls and Jesus' future self-sacrifice.
