The Lady Chapel at Bourges Cathedral has three stained glass windows from the late 16th century that tell the stories surrounding the Life of the Virgin Mary.
Claudius Lavergne was among the foremost figures of the mid-nineteenth-century revival of stained glass in France, a painter and critic whose intellectual formation under Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres and collaboration with Adolphe-Napoléon Didron positioned him at the intersection of academic draughtsmanship, historical research, and religious reform.
Worked alongside his father, Claudius Lavergne, and took over the business after his father death in 1887.
Lavers, Barraud, and Westlake were part of the Victorian Gothic Revival of stained glass. Originally Nathaniel Wood Lavers and Francis Philip Barraud had worked for Powell & Sons, and Lavers started his own studio in 1855 and was Barraud joined him in 1858 as the designer.
1540 stained glass in St Godard Rouen tell the story of Saint Romain (Romanus).
Dated 1554 this window depicts scenes from the Life of St Eustace.
The vast south transept window at Lichfield Cathedral is one of the most imposing works of High Victorian stained glass in the building. Installed between 1869 and 1873 as part of the 19th-century restoration campaign, it was designed and executed by the prolific Gothic Revival studio Clayton & Bell. Comprising nine tall lancets crowned by rich tiers of tracery lights, the window forms a complex yet coherent theological cycle centred on the Majesty of Christ and the ranks of heavenly and ecclesiastical witnesses.
This four light window (1467-1469) in the north wall of the Lady Chapel at Evreux Cathedral, depicting scenes from Life of Christ, was a gift to the cathedral by King Louis XI of France.
The west window by Hardman (1886) contains ten scenes from the life of Christ.
