Two stained glass windows designed by Percy Nobbs to commemorate the First World War are ensconced in the stairwell of the main staircase in the University Club. -- --The smaller window, a roundel, bears the inscription: “TO THOSE OF US WHO FELL 1914-1919”. An open book lists the names of those club members who died. Military symbolism is employed in the creation of a curiously abstract, yet powerful figure: a helmet propped on a reversed rifle represents the fallen soldier. Hovering protectively over this figure, two angels grasp a palm frond and a branch of oak leaves respectively signifying honours for military and civil achievement. The foliate background features poppies, which allude to John McCrae’s World War I poem, “In Flanders Fields”. McCrae was not only one of the club’s founding members; his name appears as one of the war dead. -- --The large arcaded window bears the signature of Thomas William Camm, one of the important stained glass artists of the Arts and Crafts movement. --Susan Wagg, “Arts et Métiers: Le Club Universitaire de Montréal,.” (trans.
