Windows : a book about stained & painted glass

Day, Lewis F. (Lewis Foreman), 1845-1910 · 1909 · London : B. T. Batsford · 34 pictures

Windows: A Book About Stained and Painted Glass is a 1909 London survey by the designer Lewis F. Day, published by B. T. Batsford for craftsmen and students of glass. Its plates are black-and-white line drawings of medieval and later leaded glass, showing tracery, quarries and foliate panels. A designer could take from them ready-made geometric lattices, circle-and-diamond layouts and stylised leaf motifs that translate well to pattern, tile or window-grid work.
