The Art of Stained Glass by Nicole Menzy
Wednesday 28 May 2025

Guests £10 on the door
EVENING LECTURE ONLY, 7.30 start Limpsfield Church Hall, RH8 0DG

Refreshments will be served before the lecture

The work of art is not just a symbol of creative genius but a historical object and the result of a laborious process of creation. This lecture looks at the development of stained glass, its purpose, the process by which it was created and some of the extraordinary survivals. From vast cathedrals to tiny chapels, we concentrate on the great achievements of the Middle Ages but consider, too, the reasons for the decline in popularity of this once-preeminent art form and some of the projects in which it has been reconsidered and revived.

Where possible, all lectures are tailored to include relevant local examples.
