Spotlight

Stained Glass Photography

This award-winning site features a unique collection of very high quality images of stained glass windows by a range of artists and makers including such greats as Tiffany, La Farge, William Morris, Edward Burne-Jones and Henry Holiday. Much of this work is relatively inaccessible or in remote locations and most of it has never before been photographed in this detail.

The pictures range from entire windows to close-ups of minute details which makes the site an excellent resource for students of art and stained glass-making as well as those who simply want to be inspired by viewing these works.

In order to facilitate off-line viewing a CD-product will be available from the Web site which will include both published and unpublished works. The first one will be called “Angels in Glass” and will feature about 60 images of angels.
