The church at Azay-le-Rideau (4)

...but also seen in the Eglise Saint-Symphorien at Azay-le-Rideau.

  1. I wonder whether this particular stain-glass window is by Max Ingrand or by Jacques Grüber, since both maîtres-verriers worked for this lovely church. This site — in French — has photos of several stain-glass windows, but unfortunately — as usual — there is no credit, and it mentions only Max Ingrand! Who said the internet is completely unreliable?

  2. Stained Glass Art is so underappreciated in my opinion. The work alone ! forget about the artistic part ..and the age !
    Have you been to St Chapelle in Paris ? Mind boggling.

  3. I am guessing chm, of those choices, it is by Ingrand. This beautiful window has a decidedly modern feel.

    The pieces in the border are more rusticated than those in the center, which makes for a nice effect.

  5. This is so lovely! I usually don't get excited about any stained glass after medieval, but these two you have shown are wonderful.
