The themes of glass painting students are grouped into several types namely, puppet themes and mythological figures, themes, themes of cartoon characters (imaginative), themes of interest, and the theme of nature.keyword : glass painting, extracurricular

This prodrome sought to define through research, the material. composition, historic foundations, significance and technical development of glass as a window-glazing material for ecclesiastical, and later secular purposes, and examining thus its determining role in the development of architecture. The history and techniques of stained glass, an art-form linked more than any other to the mythology and dogma of the Roman Catholic Church, were traced; its history is thus one with that of the church, rising to its greatest glory during the twelfth and thirteenth centuries, and declining from the late fifteenth to the seventeenth centuries. The iconography of the church was examined, and the development of window and tracery types discussed through reference to pertinent examples on both sides of the English Channel. Subjects, stylistic and technical factors, sources of reference, ecclesiastical influences, were all within the context of social and political history . viewed. Intro., p. 1-2.

This thesis examines stained glass windows in Indianapolis churches built between 1865 and 1915. It studies the trends in Indianapolis stained glass windows and compares them with the national trends in stained glass design. The evidence contained within this thesis indicates that a wide variety of styles popular at the time are represented in Indianapolis churches. The evidence also suggests that some national trends in stained glass did influence the design of the windows in Indianapolis. However, most of the windows in the surviving Indianapolis churches from the period are not typical of the high style trends in church stained glass found elsewhere in the United States.

The world is a fractured place, faceted and fascinating in variety but broken in strife. Artist Gerhard Richter, said “Art is the highest form of hope” and the thinker Martin Heidegger said that art is a “happening of truth”. Marc Chagall hoped his art connected with people’s lives and sufferings and would become infused with prayer for redemption. How does visual art (and thinking theoretically and theologically about art) contribute toward hope and truth that bring the fragments of society into personal and communal connection? This is a practice-based (or studio-led) thesis in stained glass making at the juncture of the interdisciplinary fields of visual culture and religion. Making the visual art of stained glass windows involves collaborating, selecting, breaking, combining – processes that embody the unifying of disparate pieces. There are three projects and three chapters included in this research that work cohesively to show how visual art can facilitate a shift in us to see with compassion that guides our actions to care, and the word “EidenSight” is introduced to give vocabulary to this. Research draws primarily from reflections on collaborative studio work, visual art and visual artists, aesthetic theory (especially of Heidegger’s essay “The Origin of the Work of Art”) and thinking theologically through these sources. Stained glass has been a profession of work and a profession of faith; here the ancient art is created for contemporary places and raises questions theoretically and theologically and identifies themes that contribute to an understanding of how art affects us. Over the centuries, stained glass has contributed to architecture, art history, and theological aesthetics, as well as viewers’ personal and social experiences, from ecclesial settings to public spaces. This research contributes three commissioned site-specific stained glass installations (two in the US and one for the University of Stirling’s Art Collection) that lead the written thesis which is embedded full of images and has a correlating website: www.eidensite.weebly.com. The results are visual and verbal: requirements for the practice-based thesis include a heavily documented practical element in correlation with a shorter written component (30-80,000 words). Within the limits of these parameters, this research offers completed stained glass windows and a written thesis that includes insights from those projects, plus three chapters on: the material of glass, the space of the window, and the implications of being stained and a main conclusion that ties those elements together contributing to the overall thesis question: can art help us see with compassion that leads to care. Three institutions now have an original work of art substantiated by written theory, and the submitted thesis is substantiated by works of art viewable on different continents.

This thesis investigates the influence of the Tiffany Studios in ecclesiastical stained glass windows of Indianapolis, Indiana. The Tiffany Studios was a leading stained glass manufacturer at the turn of the century and popularized the use of opalescent glass in stained glass commissions. The following study will briefly look at the history of stained glass, discuss the life of Louis Comfort Tiffany, characterize the work of the Tiffany Studios, and evaluate the ecclesiastical stained glass windows located in Center Township commissioned between 1880-1930. The evidence contained within the stained glass summaries suggests that Tiffany Studios did influence the commission of stained glass windows in Indianapolis during the period under review.

This thesis explores facets of Scottish identity via the decorative work of Douglas Strachan. Nations and nationalism remain extraordinarily potent phenomena in the contemporary world and this work seeks to examine aspects of Scottish nationhood and cultural identity through Strachan's evocation of history, folklore, religion and myth. It has been argued that these are the chief catalysts for enabling people to define and shape their understanding of themselves and their place within society. Cultural identity is often understood as a passive form of nationalism which is remote from its political counterpart. Yet there are strong arguments to counter this belief. This thesis addresses some of the issues raised by such arguments and adopts an ethno-symbolic approach in order to re-evaluate Strachan's work, and that of his contemporaries. The thesis also develops the theoretical and contextual debates concerning the decorative arts in general and stained glass in particular in order to raise awareness of its merits and its role within our society.

La tesi doctoral que aquí presentem té com a base de la investigació l’associació empresarial entre el vitraller Antoni Rigalt i Blanch i l’arquitecte Jeroni F. Granell i Manresa. La recerca té dos objectius principal, Per una bada en aquest estudi es vol donar a conèixer el treball de l’empresa de vitralls artístics Rigalt, Granell & Cia. mitjançant l’anàlisi de l’evolució de l’empresa des de diferents vessants: a través de l’estudi de les seves obres que ens donaran constància dels diversos períodes artístics pels quals hi passen, dels diferents tipus d’obra, i de les qualitats del treball. A més, s’ha aprofundit en el coneixement sobre els diferents integrants de la societat i la seva relació amb diversos artistes i arquitectes contemporanis amb qui hi col•laboren i saber quina va ser la seva veritable rellevància dins de la recuperació de l’art del vitrall i del moviment modernista. El segon objectiu d’aquest treball ha estat portar a terme el recull de les obres d’aquesta empresa, tant de les conservades com de les desaparegudes, de les que pot restar algun tipus de documentació que corrobori que han estat obra d’aquesta empresa. El marc temporal de la investigació se centra cronològicament entre la creació del taller, el 1890, fins a la mort d’un dels seus principals socis Jeroni F. Granell i Manresa, l’any 1931. L’arxiu principal i base d’aquest treball, encara que ens ha arribat dispers i fragmentat és l’arxiu documental conservat per la família Granell i que actualment es troba al DHUBdoc, Centre de Documentació del Disseny Hub Barcelona. La tesis s’ha estructurat en cinc apartats diferenciats, el primer titulat vitralls i vitrallers, el segon tècniques i materials, el tercer el taller Rigalt. i quart i últim la producció artística, així com una catalogació final de les obres documentades. Aquest és un taller que consolida la recuperació de l’art del vitrall de finals de segle XIX, arribant a ser un dels màxims exponents dins del vitrall modernista.
The PhD thesis "The workshop of modernist stained glass: Rigalt, Granell & Cia (1890- 1931)" is grounded on the investigation of the business association between Antoni Rigalt i Blanch, a stained glass artist, and Jeroni F. Granell i Manresa, an architect. This research has two main objectives. The first one is to increase awareness of the artistic stained glasses that were produced at the Rigalt, Granell & Cia workshop by analysing the evolution of that business in different ways: by studying their artistic creations to describe its artistic periods, the different types of works and the quality of its productions. Moreover, all manner of society members have been studied in depth, as well as their relation with various contemporary artists and architects in order to know the importance of this workshop in the re-emergence of the stained glass art and the modernist movement. The second objective of this research is to compile the pieces of work of this workshop, both those well conserved and those that have already disappeared but there are documents that confirm their origin. The time frame of this investigation goes from the opening of the workshop, in 1890, until the death of one of their main associates, Jeroni F. Granell I Manresa, in 1931. The basis of this study, even it was received dispersed and fragmented, was the documental file kept by the Granell family and nowadays can be found in the Centre of Design Documentation Hub Barcelona (DHUBdoc). This PhD has been structured in five different parts: stained glasses and stained glass artists, materials and techniques, the Rigalt workshop, artistic production and the compilation of the workshop’s documented productions. The Rigalt, Granell & Cia workshop was responsible for the stained glass art comeback at the end of the XIX century, and became one of the best representatives among the modernist stained glass movement.
