Leaded glass, a timeless art form that has graced the windows of magnificent structures throughout history. From Louis Sullivan's Babson House to Charles Rennie Mackintosh's table in Scotland, these masterpieces showcase the intricate beauty and craftsmanship of leaded glass. Intriguing narratives unfold within each pane, like Mordecai overhearing a conspiracy or witnessing The Birth and Naming of Saint John the Baptist. These scenes transport us back to the Netherlands in 1525, where unknown creators skillfully captured moments frozen in time. The Lovers in a Garden window from 1520/30 evokes an air of romance and mystery as we peer into their secret rendezvous. Meanwhile, Tiffany & Co's lamp shade from 1899/1909 illuminates any room with its vibrant colors and delicate patterns. Even though some structures have been lost to time, like Ravinia Park Casino Building demolished in 1986, their leaded glass windows remain as remnants of architectural splendor. They tell stories through stained glass brushstrokes - A Nun Kneeling before Saint John the Evangelist transports us to Germany circa 1500 while The Hanging of Judas takes us to Alsace around 1520. Traveling further back in time, we encounter a Roundel with Elder of the Apocalypse from France dating back to1250/75. Its ancient allure captivates our imagination as we ponder its significance centuries later. Similarly captivating is Saints and Worshippers in Adoration from France circa1510/15; it invites contemplation on devotion and spirituality. Lastly, Harvey Ellis' window created around 1900 showcases his unique style that seamlessly blends elegance with simplicity. Each piece tells its own story but collectively they celebrate leaded glass as an enduring art form that transcends time and borders. From grand cathedrals to humble abodes, these leaded glass creations continue to mesmerize viewers with their beauty and craftsmanship.
