All Saints' Church at Tudeley in Kent is famous worldwide for its stained glass windows by the artist Marc Chagall. The first of these was made in 1967 to commemorate the death of Sarah d'Avigdor-Goldsmid. When he arrived for the installation of the east window and saw the church, he said, "It's magnificent. I will do them all". The last window was installed in 1985, the year of Chagall's death.
The windows are inspired by the words of Psalm 150: "What is man that you are mindful of him, the son of man that you care for him? You made him a little lower than the heavenly beings and crowned him with glory and honour. You made him ruler over the works of your hands; you put everything under his feet: all flocks and herds, and the beasts of the field, the birds of the air, and the fish of the sea, all that swim the paths of the seas."
