Excerpt from Stained Glass Stained glass, as the term is used, is taken to include also painting upon glass. As a matter of fact, glass staining and glass painting are two quite different things. To build up a mosaic with pieces of coloured glass, each separate tint cut out of a separate sheet of potmetal, is one thing; to paint upon a sheet of white or coloured glass is another thing altogether. 'in fact, they are not merely two different ways but two opposite ways of arriving at a result. But there is this excuse for grouping them (as it is the custom to do) under one title, that from very early days the two processes of work were used together.

Excerpt from Windows a Book About Stained Painted Glass A stained glass window is itself the best possible illustration of the difference it makes whether we look at a thing from this side or from that. Goethe used this particular image in one of his little parables, comparing poems to painted windows, dark and dull from the market-place, bright with colour and alive with meaning only when we have crossed the threshold of the church.

Excerpt from Stained Glass: Of the Middle Ages in England and France The Cathedral verger, conducting his flock of tourists round the building, while giving them plenty of really interesting and valuable information about it (for the verger of to-day is a different man from his predecessor, and is often very intelligent and well informed), remarks briefly, "The glass is of the thirteenth century" - or fourteenth or fifteenth, as the case may be; the procession gazes carelessly at it, and passes on. Yet from out of that dazzling and glowing labyrinth of coloured jewels a past age is speaking far more articulately, if one stops to unravel the message, than ever in stone or wood, and it is for those who can be induced to take that second look which will be followed by a third and a fourth and many more that I have written this book.

Excerpt from Stained Glass as an Art In the first place I desire to express my sincere and cordial thanks to my friends Sir Edward Burne Jones and Mr. William Blake Richmond, for their courtesy in allowing me to reproduce some of their designs, and thus to give specimens of the best work in stained glass of the nineteenth century. In the next place I must explain why the direct illustrations of my text are taken from my own work only. Considerations _of convenience and of good taste determined me to take this course. I am quite convinced of a general accord between my brother artists and myself as to the main principles laid down in this treatise, but it is more than probable that we may differ on minor points; and I might find myself quoting some features in their designs in illustration of an argument of my own, with which they might not Wholly agree; I might read some thing into their work which was not really in their intention. On the other hand, there _are some few matters about which we do not absolutely agree, and by employing my friends' designs in direct illustration of my principles, I might appear to be guilty of an inconsistency, unless I adopted the objectionable alternative of calling attention to the points in question for the purpose of adverse criticism.

Excerpt from Stained Glass Work: A Text-Book for Students and Workers in Glass In issuing these volumes of a series of Handbooks on the Artistic Crafts, it will be well to state what are our general aims. In the first place, we wish to provide trustworthy text-books of workshop practice, from the points of view of experts who have critically examined the methods current in the shops, and putting aside vain survivals, are prepared to say what is good workmanship, and to set up a standard of quality in the crafts which are more especially associated with design. Secondly, in doing this, we hope to treat design itself as an essential part of good workmanship. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from A Lecture on Stained Glass The practical function of stained glass is comparable with that of mosaic. Mosaic is an enrichment of the shadow. Buildings def signed for mosaic usually have quite small windows, low down in the big domes or sparsely set in the side walls, and it is the mo saic enrichment of shadow, vaguely lit by reflected light from these windows, which gives it its highest beauty. The peculiar charm of mosaic depends largely on the gold treatment of the background, which is infinitely more attractive when seen on curved surfaces and lit from below.
