It shows his right hand on an open Bible, which is itself resting on an early printing press. A life-sized bronze statue of a seated William Tyndale at work on his translation by [[Lawrence Holofcener]] (2000) was placed in the [[Millennium Square (Bristol)|Millennium Square, Bristol]], United Kingdom. The [[Tyndale Monument]] was built in 1866 on a hill above his supposed birthplace, [[North Nibley]], Gloucestershire. A stained-glass window commemorating Tyndale was made in 1911 for the [[British and Foreign Bible Society]] by [[James Powell and Sons]]. In 1994, after the Society had moved their offices from London to Swindon, the window was reinstalled in the chapel of [[Hertford College]] in Oxford. Tyndale was at Magdalen Hall, Oxford, which became Hertford College in 1874. The window depicts a full-length portrait of Tyndale, a cameo of a printing shop in action, some words of Tyndale, the opening words of Genesis in Hebrew, the opening words of John's Gospel in Greek, and the names of other pioneering Bible translators. The portrait is based on the oil painting that hangs in the college's dining hall. A stained glass window by [[Arnold Wathen Robinson|Arnold Robinson]] in [[Tyndale Baptist Church]], [[Bristol]], also commemorates the life of Tyndale. Several colleges, schools and study centres have been named in his honour, including [[Tyndale House (Cambridge)]], [[Tyndale University]] (Toronto), the Tyndale-Carey Graduate School affiliated to the [[Bible College of New Zealand]], [[William Tyndale College]] (Farmington Hills, Michigan), and [[Tyndale Theological Seminary]] (Shreveport, Louisiana, and Fort Worth, Texas), the independent [[Tyndale Theological Seminary (Europe)|Tyndale Theological Seminary]]<ref>{{Citation | url=http://www.tyndale-europe.edu/ | title=Tyndale Theological Seminary | place=[[Europe|EU]]}}.</ref> in Badhoevedorp, near Amsterdam, the Netherlands, [[Tyndale Christian School (South Australia)|Tyndale Christian School]] in South Australia and Tyndale Park Christian School<ref>{{Citation |url=http://www.tyndalepark.school.nz/ |title=Tyndale park |publisher=School |place=[[New Zealand|NZ]]}}.</ref> in New Zealand. An American Christian publishing house, also called [[Tyndale House]], was named after Tyndale.
