介绍（中）	与传统的肖像画相反，圣劳伦斯在这里出现在一片火焰中，而不是在烤架上伸展。这一表述反映了圣奥古斯丁和安布罗斯的著作，他们认为劳伦斯征服了火，但没有表现出他用三种火舔自己的脚：那些被信仰的热情、基督的爱和对上帝的真正了解所点燃的火，在这里，腰部和肩部的火焰带以及头顶的火柱代表了这些火焰小组归属坎特伯雷主要基于风格；它在大教堂唱诗班的确切位置尚未确定。胡须头不是圣劳伦斯的，而是来自同一个玻璃项目的其他地方，后来可能是在19世纪插入的；大部分铭文和大部分建筑框架都是最近修复的，以完成面板。
介绍（英）	Contrary to iconographic convention, Saint Lawrence here appears in supplication, amid bands of fire, rather than stretched out on the grill. This representation reflects the writings of both saints Augustine and Ambrose, which relate that Lawrence conquered the fire without—shown here licking at his feet—with the three fires within: those inflamed by the ardor of faith, the love of Christ, and the true knowledge of God, which are represented here by the bands of fire at waist and shoulder level and by the column of fire above his head. The attribution of the panel to Canterbury is based largely on style; its precise location in the cathedral choir has not been determined. The bearded head is not that of Saint Lawrence but came from elsewhere in the same glazing program and was later inserted, probably in the nineteenth century; most of the inscription and much of the architectural framings are recent restorations to complete the panel.
