| Summary: | Stained glass lost and rediscovered: 1530s-1815 -- The gothic revival: 1815-1860 -- Victorian stained glass companies: the 1860s -- Morris and Co, Holiday and Kempe: 1870-1900 -- Stained glass for the masses: 1860-1930 -- Whall, Clarke and Strachan: 1900-1930. Victorian stained glass - magnificent, colourful and artistic - adorns countless British churches, municipal buildings and homes. Across the decades, several artistic movements influenced these designs, from the Gothic Revival, through the Arts and Crafts Movement and into Art Nouveau as a new century dawned. Historian Trevor Yorke shows how craftsmen re-learned the lost medieval art of colouring, painting and assembling stained glass windows - but also, in this age of industry, how windows were templated and mass produced. Showcasing the exquisite glass generated by famous designers such as A.W.N. Pugin, Pre-Raphaelites William Morris and Edward Burne-Jones, and by leading manufacturers such as Clayton and Bell, this beautifully illustrated book introduces the reader to many wonderful examples of Victorian stained glass and where it can be found |
