STAINED GLASS (AMBERLEY)

Stained glass has been one of the chief glories of Britain's churches since Norman times. Stained glass windows developed through the Middle Ages, as new techniques were introduced, and the art of storytelling in glass reached ever greater heights. Surviving windows from this period make up the greatest collection of pre-Tudor art to have survived the turbulent sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. This book examines not only the history of this wonderful art form but the techniques used to make it, from the first sketches all the way to installation.
