This stained glass window by Charles Eamer Kempe, at St Peter's Market Bosworth Leicestershire, is an example of late Victorian Gothic Revival art, depicting Saints George, Peter, and Margaret in three tall, richly colored panels. Each saint stands beneath an elaborate architectural canopy, rendered in delicate tracery and glowing jewel tones that catch and filter the light with remarkable depth.
The Crucifixion window in the Church of Saint John the Baptist at Montrésor, in the Indre-et-Loire region of France, is one of the finest surviving examples of early sixteenth-century stained glass in the Loire Valley. Filling a tall Gothic lancet divided into several vertical lights, it unfolds as a vivid narrative of the Passion of Christ, rendered in rich Renaissance color and form.
Pierre Carron’s Millennium Windows at Orléans Cathedral stand as luminous meditations on creation, light, and faith renewed at the turn of the twenty-first century. Set within the soaring Gothic tracery of the cathedral, they bridge centuries of sacred art by merging medieval structure with a modern painter’s vision.
This stained glass window, crafted by the French artist Pierre Carron in 2000, graces the south-facing lancet of the Cathédrale Sainte-Croix d'Orléans, a Gothic edifice spanning the 13th to 19th centuries. This modern addition, bathed in the interplay of light, celebrates the heroic figure of Joan of Arc, the city’s revered patron saint
