Baltic Exchange Memorial Glass, Stained glass war memorial at National Maritime Museum in Greenwich, England
The Baltic Exchange Memorial Glass features a hemispherical dome structure containing 240 panels divided into five sectors displaying colored glass paintings of virtues.
Created in 1922 to honor 60 Baltic Exchange members who died in World War I, the memorial survived World War II but sustained damage in a 1992 IRA attack.
The stained glass panels incorporate British maritime elements, military symbols, and classical figures, including Victory stepping from a boat into a Roman temple.
The memorial stands on the second floor of the National Maritime Museum, near the Great Map Cafe, and visitors can access it daily from 10:00 to 17:00.
The restoration process preserved 45 original panels from 1922, integrating them with new glass to recreate the complete 240-panel dome structure in 2005.
