John La Farge, Spring, 1901-02 Photography Lee Sandstead The
American Stained-Glass Movement Illustrated lecture—one hr The American stained-glass movement of the late
nineteenth- and early-twentieth centuries forever revolutionized the art of
stained glass. Fueled by the
fierce competition between the artists John La Farge and L.C. Tiffany,
American artists challenged six-centuries of stained-glass dogma to form
their own patented style and radically new subject matter. In the past year, Mr. Sandstead has personally
experienced thousands of American stained-glass windows from this era and
seen first-hand the genius of the American Stained-Glass movement. Come to
this lecture and learn how stained-glass and the art of stained-glass can
dramatically affect your life, giving you another life-long passion to
pursue.
