Zoom Lecture - Arts and Crafts Stained Glass Wednesday 16 March 2022 at 7.30 pm
“Stained Glass –The making of Arts & Crafts stained glass in the mid to late Victorian era"
a Lecture by Dr Jim Cheshire
Victorian stained glass manufacturers created windows to suit a range of tastes and worked in a variety of styles. Dr Jim Cheshire will explore the emergence of the Arts and Crafts ethos through the evolution of stained glass in the Victorian period and trace how concerns about the materials, artistic value and historicism laid the foundations for Arts and Crafts stained glass.
Dr Cheshire recently contributed the stained glass section for “The Routledge Companion to William Morris” and has also contributed the section on Victorian Medievalism and Secular Design for the “Oxford Handbook of Victorian Medievalism”. His research has examined the literary and visual culture of the 19th Century and he has worked specifically on stained glass and the Gothic Revival. He presented a lecture to the Pre- Raphaelite Society last summer and having attended that I thought how good it would be to have him talk to us on the same subject -stained glass – but focused on Arts and Crafts designers. His wealth of knowledge is not to be missed.
