Description

For the last 1200 years from the earliest surviving fragmentary Anglo-Saxon period stained-glass through mediaeval glass, to the nineteenth and twentieth century revival of the this most magical of art forms, the story is a compelling and fascinating one.

Through a series of lectures and the opportunities to handle examples and the materials you will not only gain an insight into the history and stylistic development of the medium but also the process of creating a window. In addition, there are also a series of short visits to in-situ windows. If you are at all interested in the history and development of stained-glass then this is the programme for you.

Residential Fees From: £780.  There will be a supplement of £200 for this course towards the cost of transport and entrance fees.

Non-resident fee £474 (includes supplement)
